1990 Nissan Pathfinder XE 4x4 review from North America
"A roomy, dependable 4x4"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have replaced (2) fuel injectors (180,000 miles) and the alternator (200,000 miles). The body, if not taken care of, will rust. That is something to look out for especially. The speedometer is starting to not read correctly (approx. 240,000 miles). Speed 4 (highest speed) of my fan does not work.
General comments?
This is a very sturdy, robust machine. I could not be happier with the Pathfinder. It has been very dependable up to this point. I am still running on the original engine and automatic transmission. The 4x4 still functions properly. As long as you change the oil at 3000 mile intervals and change the timing belt every 60,000 miles, the Pathfinder will treat you well.
