1995 Nissan Pathfinder XE review from North America
"This is a definite keeper to drive 'till the wheels fall off!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There is so very little wrong with this SUV that listing anything is just nit picking. BUT:
Needed to replace all shocks and stabilizer bars twice.
Needs realignment quite often due to my love of the off road.
Had to replace radiator.
Seats are not very comfortable, but I added cushioned seat covers.
Turning radius could be better for a truck this size.
Gas mileage varies from 15 - 19 mpg.
General comments?
I have had this SUV for eight years now and it looks as good as the day I picked it up. Even the paint job looks good. I change the oil every 3000 miles and do routine maintenance every 20,000. This vehicle still looks good on the highway. How many 1995 autos can say that?
I had a 93 Toyota 4Runner that had a serious problem in crosswinds. In my opinion, it sat too high for it's light weight. The Pathfinder does not have that problem.
