1992 Nissan Pathfinder Reviews

DO NOT BUY.

Frame is completely rusted through and is not safe to drive.

Now I have a car I can't drive, it could break in half literally. It's junk.

Other than rusted frame; a reliable, solid feeling truck.

It runs drives and shifts like a new car, but cheap steel means a rusty mess and an unsafe truck.

This is a shame, because I am in love with the look and feel of it, and I can't drive it.

The seats are a little uncomfortable after a while.

- Had to replace fuel pump

- Center console broke

- Think it may have an oil leak now :(

- Rust in the rockers and under rear seats seems to be expanding exponentially (which I would attribute to the wonderful PA winter roads)

- Power steering leak

- Brakes squeak

- Inaccurate speedometer/odometer

- Rear lift gate struts failed

It's an excellent running vehicle, and fairly reliable. I haven't had a problem since getting the fuel pump replaced several months ago.

Has an undeniably large turning radius, but really seems to be a bit underpowered as SUVs go, but it seems to be on par with an Explorer of the same year. Haven't really been able to get an accurate mpg calculation because of an overly optimistic speedometer (claims speeds 10-14mph faster than reality).

Would consider buying another one.

The Pathy has been Verry Reliable, Only had a Few Problems with Electricle Issues. Power Windows, Windo Wipers, that's about it.

It rides nice, has enough power for me, more than most other SUV's in 1992.

I bought this car new. I have had no problems for 137,500 miles. I have replaced the brakes once and the tires several times. I have all the recommended maintinance done. The car runs perfect. I still have the original clutch and I am finally going to replace the shocks. THIS IS THE BEST CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED. I know it's dull looking and a little underpowered,but it just keeps going. I will keep it until it dies or I do.

This is my third Nissan I am hooked on Nissan

Transmission was replaced under warranty by previous owner at 60,000 miles.

Left exhaust manifold gasket replaced at about 120,000 miles.

Brake master cylinder was replaced at about 150,000 miles.

Water pump was replaced at about 160,000 miles.

Oil pump was replaced at about 203,000 miles.

Very reliable vehicle. Has never failed to start.

Air Conditioning has never been worked on and we are at 205,000 miles with the coldest AC.

Does not use oil.

Comfortable drive. A bit wobbly side to side like a truck when we drive on the interstate highways.

Interior has held up excellently.

Exterior has held up very well for a vehicle that is not kept in a garage.

Manifold bolts failed. locks have failed. some rust. changed timing belt.

A reliable small SUV. Clever balance of power/ acceleration/fuel economy. Inside spare takes up too much space. Motor gives the feel it will never fail.

The only problems I have had to date are the a/c needed to be recharged.

The catalytic converter is in need of changing.

The wiper/washer motor has also needed to be replaced.

The factory rear shocks had to be replaced, though the front shocks were still good condition.

This has been a GREAT car.

The vehicle is in superb condition inside, but the paint is wearing on the roof outside.

The 5 speed transmission is great.

The 4 wheel drive is great and easy to engage.

It handles good for a top heavy vehicle, and is a most comfortable ride.

There is lots of room inside, and roof rack space on top.
