On Monday 12/9/2019 I was driving the Pathfinder alone on audelia road in dallas Texas. The speed limit is 35 mph in this area. I was the only person in the vehicle and there was nothing in the passenger seat. Around 11:00 am I heard a loud explosion and the vehicle was filled with dust while in motion. Assuming I was hit I pulled over and exited my car. After I got out of the car I noticed there were no other cars in the area. I walked around the outside of the car and saw zero damage. (photo attached) I looked back into the car and then saw that all of the passenger side airbags deployed.(photo attached) the airbags on the driver side did not deploy. My head was pounding and my eyes hurt from all the dust that was shot out in the air bags deploying. Aaa towed my car to trophy Nissan in mesquite Texas. The dealership would not touch the vehicle as they stated it was a manufacture issue. I have called Nissan and started the process. The engineer sent by Nissan has assessed the vehicle and stated that he sees no physical, electrical or after market parts that would have triggered the failure. (photo attached) we have yet to hear from Nissan on what their conclusion is but the air bag failure is a serious issue and could have hurt my infant child severely as this is the side her car seat is located. Last-we are under the impression we had the airbag recall issue repaired in April 2019.trophy Nissan was very misleading with their answers on the recall repairs. Paperwork attached.

I have been having issues with my vehicle since 2016. In 2017 my vehicle stalled at a busy exit ramp after shaking. The most recent incident September 11, 2019 my vehicle stalled again on a busy exit ramp. The warning on the vehicle stated hybrid system overheating. I took the vehicle in to the dealer because of the shaking and stalling and two days later I received my vehicle back. The service report states there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. On Saturday, September 14th my vehicle was worse than before with two warning lights. I was barely able to drive the vehicle back to the dealer on September 16th. On September 17th I receive a phone call from the service advisor that the issue with the vehicle is the transmission. The shaking has been an issue since 2017 but according to the service agents they never experienced it until September 16th.

I arrived at my destination and attempted to open my drivers side door and the handle would not work. It made a crunch sound and I could no longer use it. I now have to leave my car on, roll my window down, reach to open the car from the outside, roll the window back up, then turn my car off. I had parked my car in a parking lot on a level surface when this happened.

1st it was my transmission, which was rebuilt due to a lawsuit. Then it was the engine, used engine with 50,000 was put in and I only had 76,000 on the original one. Then both cooling fans had to be replace....$6000 later and now the [xxx] visors!! drivers side broken, won't stay up unless I use a bungie cord. It's a hazard having it flapping in front of driver and my passenger side is failing. Nissan do something about this!! I've put enough $$$ into this car, it's like my money pit!! never ever again will I buy or suggest a Nissan to anyone. Can't wait to get rid of this car!! parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I had 2014 Nissan Pathfinder and my vehicle was inspected and passed with no issues in June 2019. The day of the accident, I drove all morning with no type of incidents. My niece, who lives on a hill was in the car with me and I picked her that morning from her house. She had to returned to her house later that morning for an item so I drove back up the hill, waited for her in her driveway, left her house and as I was driving down the hill I realized that my brakes was not functioning, my emergency brake light appeared and then all the lights on my dashboard turned on. The emergency brake wasn't working and I couldn't stop the car. I kept pressing my brakes and nothing was happening. It just kept going! at that point, I looked around to see the best place to crash. I came down the hill crossed over one of the main roads and steered my car into a fence and we hit a tree. All of my airbags deployed and I was grateful that both my niece and I had no major injuries. My vehicle was totaled by the insurance company. I had no issues with my brakes in the past! I did find out that there was a problem with the brake software in the 2013 and 2014 Nissan Pathfinders model-years and there was a recall. I bought my vehicle in 2014 however I never got a recall notice. I also had my vehicle service at a Nissan dealership and brake software failures was never communicated to me. Something went terribly wrong with my brakes or the software that day.

The driver's side sun visor has an inner plastic piece broken which makes the sun visor randomly fall, blocking my view when driving. This is a common issue on many 2014 Pathfinders that can be fixed by making the parts (visor) better, or by selling a replacement part for the plastic piece that easily breaks. Instead, the manufacturer only sells as a replacement part, the exact same visor that is likely to break again. A second issue on this car is the driver's side door handle inside and outside the door. I find myself often trapped inside the car or outside the car due to this door handle malfunction. This could easily become a life/death safety issue if ever I was in an accident and was trapped inside the car. This is another common defect on this car caused by a cheap plastic piece breaking. Another problem besides being trapped in the car is that sometimes the door opens while driving. These safety issues common in the 2014 Nissan Pathfinder should be corrected immediately with a safety recall.

The driver's side sun visor no longer stays in the 'up' position and 'opens' whenever I am driving, especially if I hit a bump. The visor suddenly drops and hangs down, directly impairing my ability to see the road. Whenever I try to put the visor back up to its 'up' position it makes a loud creaking noise

The door handle to the passenger side snapped and the door does not open from the inside now.

My vehicle will make startling rattling sounds under the hood whenever the heat or air conditioning is on whether the car is idle or in motion. Whenever this occurs, the vehicle also hesitates when accelerating as if it will cut off.

The sun visors on our 2014 Nissan Pathfinder started to droop down and eventually became so loose that they did not stay up at all and are dangling all the way down. This is not only annoying but also a safety hazard because the driver side is blocking part of the view. The loose flapping panel also distracts the driver immensely.

A plastic piece in my visors is broken. This seems to be a huge complaint from other Nissan Pathfinder owners as well. Visors hang down in the way of vision while driving.

- Brighton, CO, USA

My vehicle shifts into od on its own. The dealership has done a soft reassembly an replaced the guts of the transmission and the issue is still occuring. This vehicle also previously needed to be towed due to it not accelerating after reaching 60mph on a major highway. It slowed down on its own and would not accelerate pass 20 mph

I was driving my vehicle on 11/6/2018 and it was riding funny so I took it into my dealership, the transmission was going my cars trans went out a total of 3 times of the dealership fixing it. They stated that's a number one problem in these vehicles.

2014 N Pathfinder 83,000 miles- I parked my car when I restarted it 10 min later, white smoke started coming from my exhaust. So much smoke that I was afraid to drive it. I had the car towed to my mechanic. He said that it's defiantly the engine (possible piston ring or stuck valves) he says he's heard of others with the same problem. Googled and see many others with the same problem. Dealer says I'm 8,000 miles out of my extended warranty. Hard to believe this problem seems so wide spread and isn't a recall.

- Ashburn, VA, USA

We were traveling down the highway at approximately 1pm when the sunroof exploded. This is the second time the sunroof glass exploded. It exploded before on 11/29/18. The weather was sunny and clear with a temp of about 45 degrees. The sun shield was open but the sunroof was closed. We hadn't passed an overpass and when the we cleaned up the glass we didn't find anything that might have impacted the glass of the sunroof. We purchased the car used from a dealership in April 2018.
