Engine Stall Problems of Nissan Pathfinder

I bought this vehicle in 2018 since then I've had this vehicle in the shop multiple times . My differential was replaced a few months after I bought the vehicle along with my fan blades . This is again an issue for my car this just having gotten it back because I had to do a complete engine replacement in my now only 4 year old car . My car was out of warranty from Nissan based on any of the mileage . I took it to one dealership who claimed that I had metal in my oil said nothing of smudge in the oil mind you I had just had my oil changed again not told anything . I was driving home from work in March 2020 when my low oil pressure light kicked on which didn't make sense as I had just had an oil change a few weeks prior and kept up on my oil changes . The engine that is in my vehicle is apparently Nissans newest engine and a very expensive one at that . I requested an exception from Nissan in regards to the engine so I did as they said and took it to another dealership this time the Nissan dealership . They claimed my engine was a total loss and it was due to lack of maintenance there was no way this was the case in my situation . Nissan informed me that maybe the previous own r had done it and basically there was nothing that could be done . So I got online and started looking around to find that other people had reported the same thing . My vehicle is primarily all highway driving I paid over 7k for a new engine to be put in my car from a local shop . The engine had to be taken out twice because the inside pistons were sticking this was on the new engines . Once my engine was finally installed and my 02 sensors replaced as well a week later my car was throwing a misfire for low oil pressure light. This clearly is a fault with Nissans design of this engine . I have spent thousands on a newer vehicle with no help from Nissan and no fault of my own .

Nhtsa recall number: opens new window takes away from VIN lookup section> 10v-517 recall date: October 28, 2010 manufacturer recall number: pc068 summary: the intelligent power distribution module (ipdm) assembly contains an engine control module (ecm) relay that has a diode for electrical current noise reduction. The ecm relay may allow silicon vapor to form and, over time, the silicon evaporates from the diode molding which causes silicon oxide to develop on the ecm relay contact due to arcing. Safety risk: this could cause engine stalling increasing the risk of a crash. Remedy: dealers will replace the ecm relay inside the ipdm assembly.

Since the purchase of the vehicle, my Nissan Pathfinder has failed to accelerate either at a stop or during normal speed. The engine would not stall, but would only accelerate almost at idle speed. The symptom of the problem would occur a couple of time then the slip indicator light would display and stay on until the car was shut down and restarted, I have several pictures demonstrating the issue as described for when the indicator slip light for the limited slip control would display in clear conditions. This would occur in ideal weather conditions and road conditions were clear and my foot was definitely not engaging the brake pedal. This presents a significant safety issue, especially when attempting to pull into oncoming traffic or attempting to pass a slower vehicle. I could depress the gas pedal to the floor with no impact on acceleration. I have had several near misses with oncoming traffic due to failure to accelerate. I took in the vehicle into d-patrick Nissan in evansville, indiana several times and to andy mohr Nissan, indianapolis indiana. In both cases, the dealership was unable to detect any issues with code errors or replicate the issue even after I provide photo evidence of the issue I was having. The failure to accelerate is so random and can happen several days in one week or at least once a week. When it does happen I know it will not change until I can shut down the vehicle and restart. Some instances the failure to accelerate would persist but most of the time is would correct itself after restarting. I am afraid to drive the car with my wife and three children in it. I finally decided to file a complaint after I found another Nissan Pathfinder owner who was having the exact same issue with his Nissan Pathfinder.

Driving home from work on freeway with 1/4 tank of fuel - engine stalled in fast lane and would not restart. I was stuck in the traffic lane for 40 mins until the state police had a tow truck tow me away. Turns out, the fuel gauge was inaccurate because my tank was empty. My gauge goes above the f when I fill up and it is empty at just above a the 1/4 mark. Very dangerous situation and I could have been killed over a faulty gas gauge that seems to be a big problem after seeing all of the complaints on the internet. When the gauge goes bad - the low fuel warning light does not come on so I was completely caught off guard. I was a sitting duck on the freeway with cars slamming on their brakes to avoid hitting me even with my hazard lights on. Please help.

I purchased an after-market engine cold air intake for my 2006 Nissan Pathfinder. Approximately a month after I installed the intake a piece of metal from the intake broke of and got lodged in the throttle of my vehicle during a trip to los angeles, CA. The metal piece caused my car's engine to stall the die completely on the freeway within a matter of seconds. I was able to safely get my vehicle to the side of the road. I had the vehicle towed to a mechanic in barstow, CA who removed the metal debris from the throttle. The mechanic informed me the metal had broken loose from inside the intake. When I removed the intake and examined the inside I found more pieces of metal ready to break free. The metal fragments were left hanging and cleaned up after the metal was cut and the O2 sensor fitting was welded on.

While driving engine stalled. Vehicle checked by dealer, who determined that "unified meter" which controls dashboard functions had failed. This problem somehow resulted in shut off of gas flow to engine, causing vehicle to stall. Occurred on 9-3-02 and 9-15-02.
