Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I leased this 2024 Nissan Pathfinder new, and the issue began almost immediately, at approximately 13 miles. I initially noticed intermittent stuttering and the vehicle jumping or lurching forward following acceleration. Because I trusted the Nissan brand and initially assumed the behavior may have been related to normal vehicle operation or user error, I did not immediately pursue the issue. At approximately 21,000 miles, the problems became significantly more frequent and pronounced. …”
NHTSA complaint #11768401, filed 2026-10“Since we purchased the vehicle we noticed that power outlet would not work. We have taken this vehicle back to the dealership and even though they fix it as soon as we drive it out within in one or two hours it will give out again. The last time we took it they said not to use off the market cellphone chargers because that is what is making it not work. Then the AC has also stopped working a couple of times. All of sudden the truck will blow out hot instead of cold air. We have to stop the vehicle, turn it off and let it rest and then the AC will be back up. …”
NHTSA complaint #11673779, filed 2025-07“Too long for this space, I have attached a PDF with all the information Also attached work order picture of vehicle being towed, then pictures of the alerts these were from Sunday but were the same from Saturday through Monday. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AS I BELIEVE IT IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT A BRAND NEW CAR HAS 2 ENGINE FAILURES IN THE MIDDLE OF HIGHWAYS! I AM HIGHLY CONCERNED IT MAY BE ANOTHER ISSURE THAN THE BATTERY AND I WANT THEM TO BE RECALLED AND SAFE FOR EVERYONE!!! THEY WILL HAVE THIS CAR BACK ON LOT FOR SALE PROBABLY TODAY!!! PLEASE HELP”
NHTSA complaint #11553941, filed 2023-11“While merging onto the parkway, the gas pedal snapped off during acceleration. There was no warning at all, it just snapped off when I stepped on the pedal. I was fortunate enough to pull over onto the shoulder of the parkway without incident, but I had no way to accelerate the car if I needed to. I was very lucky that nothing happened, but I'm very concerned about driving this vehicle and the potential danger it poses to myself and others if this happens again. I believe this is a serious issue and should be looked into with urgency. I've attached pictures of where the pedal snapped off. …”
NHTSA complaint #11618965, filed 2024-10“While driving at highway speeds, when attempting to accelerate when passing another vehicle or changing lanes, the vehicle has lost acceleration on more than 1 occasion. I could not accelerate even with the gas pedal all the way down. The car just rolled slowly for about 10 seconds before it began accelerating and jerked forward. Nissan not providing a solution because they “cannot duplicate the issue””
