problem #2

Pathfinder SL 4x4 3.5L V6

  • CVT transmission
  • 48,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

Car would not start but ALL lights were flashing on dash. In succession, with beeping as well. Messages started appearing, Key Fob Not Connected, Key Fob Not Recognized, Flashing interior lights as if I was in a disco. No way to start the car. Late at night, got new batteries brought to me, no luck, got 2nd Fob, no luck, jumped car got home with liftgate not latching at all so lights flashing, beeping regularly every time I went over a rise or bump.

I parked car. Would not start. Jumped it next day and brought to dealer. All lights flashing again. They just called and said a new car battery "seems to have fixed the starting problem" but the liftgate is still not working. Sigh.

Update from Aug 27, 2021: SOLD THE CAR before extended warranty ran out. EasyCare covered it but with 4 major issues...I'm done.

Pathfinder Pathfinder 3.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 195,000 miles

just one day one of the fobs stopped working, we started using the other fob, and a few weeks later the second fob stopped working , so i have to take the key out of the fob and open the car manually, i called Eastern Meadow land nissan in Hasbrouck heights NJ and made an appointment. They asked for $150 diagnosis fee. I declined, went home and I called the corporate office in TN. They asked me to go back to the dealer. I did the next day and they said it's the battery and its $56 to install battery in both fobs. I agreed, and an hour later they said its not the battery its the programing and it costs $130 to fix the issue. I agreed, and an hour later they said its not the programing and I need knew fobs, it's $300 each.
