Nissan Pathfinder

First introduced in 1986 as a truck-based SUV, the Nissan Pathfinder has since evolved into a family-friendly midsize three-row crossover. Today's Pathfinder offers a smooth ride, spacious interior, and versatile seating, making it an appealing choice for families. The latest models also boast a user-friendly infotainment system, ample storage, and a respectable towing capacity. However, the Pathfinder faces some criticism for its somewhat dated cabin, especially prior to its 2022 redesign. Additionally, it may not be the best choice for drivers who prefer a more engaging driving experience, as its handling and performance lag behind the leaders in its class. Despite these drawbacks, the Nissan Pathfinder remains a solid option for value-oriented buyers who want a well-rounded three-row SUV.

2014 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum AWD

4.0

The Navigation System is horrible. It is by far easier to simply use our cell phone navigation than to go through the agonizing process of answering question after question and still never getting to the location we need. We may consider trading our car in on another car just to get one that is more user friendly.

hate that I can't use my Android phone for music or Nav with the USB. Who wants to use AUX cables anymore? Big letdown.

2014 Nissan Pathfinder SL AWD

We love our new Pathfinder; however, the side mirrors are so large and designed in such a way that they create a terrible blind spot on both sides by the front tires. I wonder if anyone else has mentioned this issue and if there is a design change to fix this?

I would love to have a compass option that is visible at all times. I use a compass quite frequently in the city!

I wish I had drove the Pathfinder more before I bought it. The seats are not very comfortable and sit was too low. My Sienna was much more comfortable to drive and ride in.

My new vehicle is functional and was a good price. I love the extras that came with the vehicle but my first priorities were price, comfort, driving ease, towing power and gas mileage.

Rest points on steering wheel no comfortable. Sharp edges. Wish it had a backup camera. Pathfinder has many blind spots.

USB to ipod doesn't work always. I have to undock and connect multiple times till I see song playing. Also I get some noise on my left rear door. I need to visit dealer.
