1997 Nissan Pathfinder SE review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing, although it had recall concerning tire rotation and a new muffler.
General comments?
The BOSE auto sound system is the best in the world. Unfortunately the plastic trim around the speakers is not. Too many rattles from a 30k auto.
Excellent ride for an SUV, better than most cars.
Engine roars like a bus and is a bit underpowered.
All-in-all I like the truck but I not sure of getting another Nissan. I've had two Hondas before it and miss the Honda-like quality.
