Three problems related to frame and members have been reported for the 1998 Nissan Pathfinder. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The front end of the vehicle was making a strange noise upon inspection I realized the front left strut tower separated from the chassie of the vehicle. After inspection from a registered repair shop they rendered the vehicle unrepairable due to safety liability.
Front left wheel well at strut mount has rusted through at 155000 making it impossible to drive car. Have found other examples of this problem on the internet. Problem could result in a serious accident if failure occurs while towing. Dealer says car can be repaired for $3000. Contacted Nissan to see if they will pay for all/part of repair.
This is for my Nissan Pathfinder 1998 model vehicle. From about 2008 I am noticing corrosion from under the vehicle. I was not able to find where to log a complaint,now I know. 1). The bottom of the car rusting completely I think. 2. There is big noise from the bottom of the car feeling like something could be rusted and broken. 3. The 2 side running boards are corroded and broken and separated from the vehicle. I don't feel safe driving this vehicle now.
