Most of the time that i am accelerating between 20 - 25 mph, the vehicle is shaking. the amount of shake or "shudder"varies from slightly noticeable to very noticeable. the concern here is the reliability of the transmission (cvt) which seems to be slipping. i believe this should be investigated to prevent failure of the transmission while driving in freeways thus preventing a possibility of a crash. *tr
Traveling approximately 55mph when my pathfinder shuttered. i slowed down not knowing if my car was going to stall. i took pathfinder to local nissan and mechanic stated he did not find anything wrong with the car & until the shutter is duplicated and witnessed by them then they could log it in. a few days went by & i was turning into the residential area that i reside at approx 15mph & the suv shuttered again. i took it back to nissan and another mechanic who check out the car after several hours stated he could not duplicate the problem & was not able to log it in either. ever since i have been having issues. at this point i am concerned it is a safety issue since i don't know what else to expect from the pathfinder. mechanics are helpful either. i came across several blogs talking about the same issue & it seems the mechanics are clueless about the problems the pathfinders are having. *tr
