    I have a 2012 Nissan Sentra S with over 223,000 miles on it. Never had an issue with the original CVT. I changed the fluid every 60,000 miles as required in the owner’s manual. Nissan is capable to be reliable as Toyota and Honda. You haters should learn how to read a manual and drive a car properly and you won’t have any problems long term.

    Test drove one today in the Platinum trim, I thought I had made my mind up choosing the Mazda CX-9 Carbon Edition but the Pathfinder was levels above the CX-9 in almost every category, more room, especially in the third row, better equipped, third row air vents and USB ports, I’m 5’10 and fit completely comfortable in the third row, wireless car play, multiple camera angles made parking a breeze, tech wasn’t even close, the only thing Mazda outshines the Pathfinder was on the highway, it passes with ease, the Pathfinder lagged a lil. Good and honest review.

      You are right on it! The throttle response is terrible on this pathfinder! But everything else is better than Cx9. But Cx9 feels much faster. The turbo really kicks in on that thing!

    • @juanr4913
      @juanr4913 3 года назад

      I agree. My cx9 gets premium gas so I can get that extra 20 or so HP compared to reg gas. My lease is up soon and I’m contemplating the pathfinder. Small things like no remote start and no pano sunroof bother me as well. The driving dynamic is awesome though and the torque is really high. I need to test drive the pathfinder soon.

  • @cupoli138
    @cupoli138 3 года назад +1

    Not dealbreakers but to address the "issues" Nissan missed:
    The nissan fob should have an open liftgate option.
    Passenger seat height:
    I have lifted seats by adding a bushing to increase overall height. It will not be adjustable on the fly but will nicely suffice until addressed by nissan/aftermarket. (Might even add comfort depending on material lol)
    Definitely adding a little boost of hp somewhere but thats a personal choice, not necessary.
    If truly needed, a warranty approved lift kit/tires that do no't sacrifice ride quality...again, personal, many new suvs suffer ground clearance minimums as most only see pavement/minor unpaved roads.

    No complaints but wish it would have came out last year before I did my lease. 20 yr old XTERRA and it was running great. Not the biggest car guy but nice to see Nissan realizing it needed to upgrade the Pathfinder because it has been lacking and when a non car guy knows that it has to be significant. Even the Kia Selleride now has competition especially if in snow or light trials. This beats the highlander in my book especially if it went back to duaribilty and visibility

    Great review 👍, however I don’t want a height adjustable passenger seat. Someone passengers would just adjust the seat heighten and get in the driver’s view when looking too the right. It also adds to the weight and cost of the vehicle. I never had a height adjustable passenger seat and never needed. I do like a sun roof. Does the sun roof open?

    I test drove a 2022 Pathfinder SL 4WD here in Central Texas where it was 100 degrees today on 7.29.21.. the reason I wanted to test drive one was to see how the AC worked because I saw a few reviews that said the AC didn't get cold enough...and they were RIGHT...The AC did NOT get cold enough IN THE 100 degree weather today..
    I had the AC set to recycle the air from the inside air with AC button pressed and had it set to the lowest setting which was 60 degrees and the air did not feel crisp enough and would get warmer when u slowed down ,I also un pressed the AC button and that did not help..I own a 2015 Pathfinder SV and the air gets colder in it when I have it set to 70 degrees with the air being recycle from the inside air and the AC button is not pressed..Needless to say I was disappointed..matter of fact we help my mother in law buy a Nissan 2021 Kick last week and the AC gets colder then the New 2022 Pathfinder..Nissan please fix...Here in Texas if the AC isn't cold enough then nothing else matters with all the other new features...I definitely recommend testing one out on a HOT day before buying one..

    I like these cars an the style comfortable insides. But the low profile tires are not off road worthy. Nissan is not the only ones a lot of others has same problem. It wouldn't have to have 35or 37 just a regular tire with a little space between you an ground. Low profile tires are road worthy only.

      @@stevehammes I bought one of these in the SV trim. It's my first SUV. I have 1500 miles on the odometer and I love it. My only complaint is that start/stop feature. I wish it could be permanently disabled. If it needs more get up and go i'll just put it into its sport mode setting. And i'm not worried about the low non adjustable passenger seat because I won't be sitting over there anyway. I like your reviews better than Raiti's Rides. He's good but he yells too much and is always going on about how many twinkies can fit in the vehicle. So annoying.

      Not good enough? Lol. It tows 1000 pounds more than the competition, which is needed for comfortably towing many small rvs. It has easy access to third row even with a car seat, has a great awd system, plenty of cargo room, has "wireless" Apple car play, and subjectively looks way better than all the competition. I genuinely wonder what you think is not good enough, bc the way I see it no other car in this category fits the bill.
