2001 Nissan Pathfinder Equipment Problems

“I own 2001 Nissan Pathfinder and the clarion bose 6 cd player keeps braking down. This is the third failure and Nissan nor clarion are willing to fix. Moreover I was shocked to find out that hundreds of other users across discussion forums are complaining about the same problem.

I contacted a Nissan dealership, they informed me that the unit could be repaired for $230 plus labor and that there was no guarantee. Some customers have reported that the problem occurred again after the unit was repaired and/or replaced. …”

“I purchased Nissan Pathfinder 2001 on march 2001, and the in-dash 6-cd changer defected first time less than a year within the warranty. It was sent to factory to be refurbished. After that it malfunctioned again twice. After I bought the service manual for the clarion unit I found the problem was caused by plastic gears that continued to break. The plastic will get brittle over time and break or strip out. Knowing this, clarion continued to use plastic gears that were known to break during normal usage. This was poor engineering on clarion's part. …”
