2001 Nissan Pathfinder LE review from North America
"Great Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Mass Air Flow Sensor.
Air Conditioning Buttons.
Oxygen Sensor.
General comments?
My 2001 Pathfinder is over 140,000 miles and its reliability is way above average. That's not to say that I haven't had to replace the mass air flow sensor, or had a couple of Check Engine lights (once for 02 sensor twice for mystery causes). But when taken care of properly, the problems seem to go away, not linger like some of the issues of other posters.
The navigation system is not the best with its small buttons and weird controls, and the annoying need to buy a new map for every different region of the country. However, it was an impulse buy and it has come in handy. The AC is partly controlled by the touchscreen of the navigation system and partly by the black little AC buttons to the right of the screen. These small buttons have broken and I don't know how to replace them. Any suggestions. Right now, I can't control any function except Defrost.
