2001 Nissan Pathfinder engine complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 17 of 17, newest first, as owners wrote them.
My 2001 pathfinder had only 37,800 miles when the service engine light came on. My dealership says it needs both rear oxygen sensors at a cost of over $500. It was my understanding that oxygen sensors weren't supposed to need replacing until 90,000 miles. There is a service bulletin (02006) regarding this issue. I feel that at least of portion of this cost should be covered under warranty. How do I check on this?
My 2001 pathfinder has had some major troubles with starting. I have had to wait for a period of more than a half of an hour to get it started and I also had to call a tow truck, (I was out of town), and wait for three hours before I received a jump start, the tow truck driver said that the battery was full. I decided to do some research and found that the 2001 pathfinder has been recalled in asia for this same problem. Why is nothing being done about this in the states? S I have had the same incident occur three times I am unsure about exact dates of their occurrences.
Consumer complained about starting vehicle and intermittent stalling while driving at various speed of 0-35 MPH. Vehicle had been to the dealer on three separate occasions and they were unable to duplicate the problem.
My daughter's service engine check light keeps coming on. She has pulled over at the side of the road over and over due to this since we have told her it may be unsafe to continue driving. After doing extensive research, I find that thousands of 2001 nissan pathfinders have this problem. Mileage is very low when this occurs. I am taking it in again to have another "sensor" replaced but this does not seem to solve the problems and the car shakes badly.f hundred/thousands are having this problem with the 2001, why has there not been a recall? E spent 800 on tires because I was told it shook due to this, then they decided it was another sensor.
Water began to leak underneath of the glove compartment and then multiple light sensors starting activating without cause. Dealership stated that the evaporator was clogged with leaves, etc. However, the part was said not to need repair or replacement, but they were going to increase the size of the wholes in the evaporator, so it wouldn't clog again. Call was placed to the warranty company, and they stated it wasn't cover since it didn't need a new part, however they didn't feel the dealership should be increasing the size of the wholes if nothing needed to be replaced.car is hardly ever parked under a tree. Don't understand the need to increase the size of the evaporator wholes, if there is no previously known problem that the dealership knows about.
While driving at any speed, the vehicles engine would overheat. The consumer checked the radiator to find that all of the fluids were leaking out on the ground. The consumer has had the dealer examine the vehicle on three different occasions. The dealer have replaced the radiator, thermostat and the fan clutch.
