I have had to change the speedometer ($380.00) which the Dealer says is not unusual and had one of the exhaust manifolds warp popping the studs ($690.00) which the Dealer also said was not unusual.
My Pathfinder is a very nice vehicle. I bought it 2 years ago at 98,000 and now it is at 123,000 miles.
It's a Very comfortable vehicle that will drive threw a large snow bank no trouble (4X4 with limited slip differential). It does lack power when driving in the mountains, but does OK. It needs better cup holders, the ones in the elbow compartment are hard to drive with.
This guy is right on the money. I have had a 95 pathfinder for about 5 years now. The cup holder situation is a drag. The vehicle is very reliable, terribly sluggish, expensive on gas, and I also had to replace the spedo (about 100.00 bucks at the dealer, easy to install).
I have just recently bought a 1995 Pathfinder (127K miles). Ditto the cup holders, and the speedometer move erratically at times, suggesting it will need replacing. However, I found another disturbing problem. The one I bought has not covers around the rear wheel well, so apparently all the salt and slush of winter driving was sprayed directly onto the frame. The rear frame, from the rear wheel well back has rusted out; in some places there are gaping holes in the frame. I didn't discover this until I went to have a trailer hitch put on. Have others had this problem?
Yes, does anyone know why it's sluggish? It was fast, but now it's so slow when climbing hills, people in the slow lane honk their horns for me to go faster.
