36 Seat Belt problem of the 2013 Nissan Pathfinder

Failure Date: 01/01/2013

I purchased my brand new 2103 Nissan Pathfinder December of 2012. I noticed within the first couple weeks that the seat belt warning light on the dash would not go out if I was the only person in the vehicle and I was bucked up. So I took it in to service in early January to deal with a defect in the leather and they said that nothing was wrong with the light and that was how it was supposed to work. So everything was fine for another month when the car started blowing smoke. So I took it in for service again and this time a different dealer recognized that that wasn't how the car should be working so he said they would take care of the seat belt warning light. So a couple days later after parts were sent overnight they called and said that my vehicle was ready for pickup. I picked the Pathfinder up and sure enough the seat belt light went off when I got in but now I had an airbag failure light on the dash. Since it was the end of the day they asked me to bring it back in the next day. So after another visit to Nissan they had to call the tech line because they couldn't figure out how to fix the passenger airbag. Long story short they sent me away with my broken Pathfinder because apparently other people have had this issue and the tech line at Nissan hasn't figured out a remedy for the problem. This was unacceptable so I took my vehicle and I called consumer affairs to let them know what happened. The agreed that this was a major safety issue but now months later and I can't even get a call back from their consumer affairs. This vehicle is not safe and until Nissan can work out all of the "buggs" everyone should stay away from this vehicle.

37 Seat Belt problem of the 2013 Nissan Pathfinder

Failure Date: 12/15/2012

Almost immediately after taking delivery on my new 2013 Pathfinder I noticed the srs system warning light would remain on, unless both front and passenger seat belts were engaged. Additionally, the passenger airbag warning indicator behaves erratically, often failing to shut-off within 7 seconds of vehicle start, and remaining on, even with an adult in the passenger seat. I have thus-far made 3 trips to my servicing dealer, who has been unable to resolve the airbag system issue. On my second service visit, the dealer service advisor mentioned that Nissan tech support had advised him that the ods sensor in the passenger seat may not have been calibrated correctly, at the factory.

42 Seat Belt problem of the 2009 Nissan Pathfinder

Failure Date: 06/19/2009

My seatbelts do not lock when the breaks are mashed. For example when a breaks are suddenly mashed in the seatbelts catch to prevent the passenger from going anywhere. (mine don't) I purchased this vehicle in March 2009. In may 2009, the dealership requested that a bring it back for further diagnostic examination. When I returned in June they stated that my vehicle was not made for the seatbelts to lock. That my vehicle is properly working. I know this is a safety hazard.

44 Seat Belt problem of the 2002 Nissan Pathfinder

Failure Date: 11/20/2007

Seat belts never retracted completely. They remain loose around the entire vehicle, often hanging out the door when anyone exits the vehicle and is caught under the doors. Also, does not retract properly around baby car seat. Sometimes hangs loose. Nissan has and unreliable parts and service department. So far, I have been lucky and no one has been hurt in my SUV. It seems dangerous to me.
