What's with the 50K mile mark on Pathfinders?

MightyP · Postby **MightyP** » Tue Jun 22, 2010 6:46 pm

Up until my Pathfinder hit about 50K miles, it ran like a champ. I had no issues whatsoever. About 48K miles, the cylinders on the rear hatch went out, and just recently (just under 53K miles) my fuel gauge has started going out and no one seems to be able to get my wheels aligned.

I did some reading and it seems most of the issues on Pathfinders are surfacing between 50K and 60K miles. Anyone know what's going on? Also, if anyone can suggest a fix for my alignment issue (no, I didn't curb it and 2 different shops, including the better dealer in the area, tried and couldn't get them aligned), I'd appreciate it.

Thanks all

Well only the 05 came with with camber bolts so maybe these would help you out.. http://www.prgproducts.com/shop/product/prg_cams/

I don't have the PRG version, but I do have the camber kit from Nissan. If the PRG one would make a difference, it'd be well worth the money, but, as far as I know, a camber kit is a camber kit.

Thanks

Actually got both problems fixed on Saturday. Fuel sensor went bad (shocking...) and the bushing went bad. In the process of looking through my owner's manual, I found my receipt for the extended warranty. Actual repair cost was about $1100, but I only had to pay $200, so I'm happy.

Thanks again for the input.
