What Owners are Saying About the 2005 Nissan Pathfinder
"Great Value for you Money"
"Great reliable vehicle. Has taken the family on multiple trips without a single problem. Handles great and pretty comfortable. I would definitley recommend this year's model to anyone looking for a great and reliable SUV that doesn't drain your wallet on gas usage. The only thing that I regret is not purchasing the model with the rear AC controls and vents. Living in Florida, it gets really hot and the opptional third row seating, stays warm for a long time."
"RUN AWAY"
"Do not buy a Pathfinder made between 2005-2008. I have had nothing but trouble with mine and have seen many web-sites complaining of the same problems I have had. The major issue is the radiator cracking which lets coolant into the transmission which ruins the transmission. $6000 . Just found out I have to replace the catalytic converter. Quoted by dealership at $1750."
"At 14 Year Old, A Lot Better Than Other Vehicles"
"This car is EXCELLENT overall, with lots of space on the inside, enough power to do just about anything, 4WD helps a lot too, very good towing capabilities. Very safe overall, easy to work on, and lots of space for modifications within the engine compartment. As a first car for someone this would be perfect."
