Takata recall. Just like almost all other 1995 nissan pathfinders my frame has rusted out. Only after 2 months it passed a vehicle inspection order I noticed a 4 inch hole surrounded by rust and lots of it, I have been doing some reading online and this is a very common problem in lots of 1995 nissan pathfinders. I dont see how there is not a recall on this problem, I feel like I have been cheated by nissan just being cheap and I find it not acceptable

Baker plate rusted and wedged into brakes and rotors - literally tore everything up.. Cv boot damaged- rotors defaced- brakes defaced- all need replacing and mind you the brakes were newer had this not rusted I would not be having this expense. *tr I have had problems with this SUV and rusted frame. Both side rails are torn off -due to rust the gas tank has had to be fixed twice due to the frame rubbing on it. I love this SUV and am highly disappointed that although built to last its truly not lasting.. I am shocked and amazed that at the rust and deterioration of frame . Nissan really needs to help us resolve these ongoing problems the danger in gas tank leaks due to frame rotting is extreme. I have had my gas tank fixed twice - my nissan is literally falling apart.

Purchased a used 1995 nissan pathfinder privately for my son. Discovered a gas tank leak, we bought a new gas tank and upon having it installed the mechanic and collision expert said the frame was so rusty that the vehicle is unsafe for my son to drive. Upon examination of the pennsylvania state police the pa inspection sticker is illegal. Now I have an unsafe vehicle which my son cannot drive and I am out the money so I cannot afford to buy another vehicle. The man that sold it to me has vanished and his number disconnected. I think nissan needs to recoup me for me losses since my loss is due to faulty and premature rusting of the frames in their pathfinders of those years. Please help me.

The frame has holes in it. It's a 95 pathfinder with low mileage. 133,545 miles. I take great care of my vehicle. The outside and inside are amazing condition but the frame is rusting out and now effecting the way it drives. This has been reported by thousands of customers and nothing has been done. It's not acceptable. How can this be ignored when this many people complain about there frame getting holes in it due to materials used.

I own a 1995 nissan pathfinder se. Other people are known to have this issue as well. The frame rots out extremely fast and deems the vehicle unsafe. People sink their own hard earned money into their vehicle only to find out it's no longer safe and nissan's does nothing about it nor takes responsibility. If toyota can step up why not nissan? It's a top 5 auto maker for gods sake...

I purchased a 1995 nissan pathfinder se in june, 2007 for $3000. In 2010 I had to have the starter replaced. This vehicle was loaded onto a trailer to have it towed to a friend of mine to have the new starter put on. When he brought the vehicle back to me, after the starter was put on, he had me look at the frame. It was so rusted out that I was afraid to drive it. But I had to, only vehicle to drive. You could put your fist through the rust. After going online and doing some research, I found that alot of 1995 nissan pathfinder owners have had the same problem. I contacted nissan north america and was told there was nothing that they could do. No recalls have been done. I also contacted the indiana attorney generals office and got them involved. Still no solution since no recall has been done. Finally in june of 2011, I sold it to a junk yard for $250. Yes, I could have sold it to a private party, but did not want to be responsible if they drove it and the frame broke while driving. I would like to know if there can be an investigation in this. Toyota had the same problem and reimbursed those people at 150% of book value.

Vehicle was being driven down the expressway. A loud bang was heard from the rear of the vehicle and it started to handle real bad and became difficult to control. Brought vehicle to a shop. Inspected vehicle and found that the frame is rotted, the section of frame that holds the upper 2 rear control arms in place had torn away from the frame causing a very unsafe condition.
