2023 Nissan Pathfinder SL Review.. ULTIMATE SUV VALUE kzbin.info/www/bejne/mF6baqaOdsqgjNE

[@Laptops1781]

Recently leased this exact pathfinder. Shopped different brands quite a bit and have to say the nissan was the nicest. Honda's quality has really took a dive. Was shocked after test driving their suv's and the prices they were giving me. Pretty happy with our pathfinder

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Nicely done my friend I have to agree with you, Pathfinder seems to be one of the better 3-row SUVs in the class now and the excellent lease deals is cherry on top congrats

[@4555joe]

I have a 7 year old Pathfinder with 79k miles most reliable car I ever own. I have put a new battery,tires and run fine every day!!!!

[@MamaZ87]

The Telluride and the Palisade were my first and second choices but with the passenger crash ratings they are no longer on my list! My kids safety comes first!

[@calgary2800]

I work for a car rental company at the airport and sit in everything. This Pathfinder is so comfortable and spacious. I love to own one , but at my wages it's a pipe dream.

[@bob2823]

I just bought the Platinum model three weeks ago. I love it! I tried every SUV I could and the Nissan had the most knee room and most comfortable seats for my big ass. I went from a Grand Cherokee. I picked the green with a black roof. Looks great!

[@_Jolyn]

@bob2823 I'm a Overland with summit package; 4 different jeeps over the last 15 years. I love the Pathfinder Platinum. After 10 months, what do you think of it? Still like it more than the jeep? Getting rid of my jeep before they bankrupt the company

[@bob2823]

@@_Jolyn There are pros and cons, but overall, my Jeep just fit me better. I liked the 190" size better and if I had to do it over, I would have kept my 2016 Jeep. Too much tech on the Nissan.

[@_Jolyn]

@@bob2823 Thank you! 😊

[@Jaja52812]

Actually, the Nissan pathfinder does light my world on fire 😂

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Lol why

[@sleepwalker8496]

Bought the 23 Pathfinder Platinum Just love it.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Massive congrats really love these SUVs

[@shebamut]

I had a 2000 nissan pathfinder, lasted 20 yrs, and 260,000 miles, transmission was replaced at 150,000 miles for 3000bucs,...thats it...got my moneys worth...probably will buy another one

[@alengreen589]

It´s a good offer from Nissan, thanks Kevin 😀

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Thanks so much for your support Alen 👍

[@fanli279]

3rd row actually very good， better than cx9 and highlander

[@taserface9073]

We have 2011 frontier SL and a 2021 rogue SL. We love them both but we’ve decided to adopt 2 children and need to trade the rogue up to a pathfinder size. I love Nissan and I’ve owned 4 total (95 hardbody, Altima, the frontier and the rogue) with no issues what so ever.

[@jnagime]

I have a 2016 Pathfinder Platinum been a very good suv to the family no issues so far original owner here,now I think we are going with the 2023 Armada Platinum let’s see…..This new Pathfinder looks really nice.

[@tjhoward8412]

We just bought a 2023 SL Premium. We love it with one exception...Interior ambient lighting SUCKS!! The Platinum is awesome in this regard. However it appears there is no upgrade for the SL other than a kit to light up the lower center console area. Without that, there is only 1 usable ambient light over the phone charge area. I say one usable because there are two more ambient lights under the dash for the floor. The crazy thing is that they ONLY light when you open the doors and they are pretty much drowned out by the regular interior lights being on??? So, if thats the only thing we are disappointed in, we are doing pretty good...

[@killertofu]

Replace the bulbs with LED!

[@MrJdubbya36]

For the money I don't think you'll find anything with as many options and features. I just bought a '24 Platinum and got a great deal. No other make offers so much for the money. Comparable Mazda, Kia, or Acura would be $5k-$10k more easily.

[@Mickieshelton]

Renting it right now..very comfortable

[@danwaller5312]

We have a new pathfinder and love it

[@ahmedh1470]

Really nice overview of the car! I agree with you 100%! I checked it out at the dealership today and I liked it a lot. Except for the fact it’s gone now and have to wait for 2 months to get it if you want the SL trim, at least where I live… the market is still crazy and I think maybe I should wait? I don’t know anymore

[@MeynMotorGroup]

I would def wait it out my friend. I would not buy one of these without a 6-8% off discount. Try inquiring at a few dealerships perhaps even out of state if you have to. And if all else fails, you can reach out to AutoCompanion they are always running great sales on Nissan but you would have to pick up at Washington DC

[@m.newton556]

I like how it looks too 😍

[@WestCoastCrazed]

I have a 2022 Platinum Pathfinder... love everything except the start / stop idle feature. They need to have a way to permanently turn it off.. you have to do it every time you start the car.

[@GDC-zw4og]

Not the fault of Nissan,was required by the local government for the so called climate seek

[@evgenymaltsev3111]

Agreed. Very annoying feature. Always forget to disable it until it kicks in at the stop sign-).

[@minnesotajack1]

No CVT, so I’ll consider it

[@TwoPair72]

They compared a Platinum vs the Pilot Elite. They praised the interior over the Pilot but gave the Honda a slight edge on driving and handling. Slight advantage on the Honda transmission. The Nissan drives better in Sport mode. If Nissan offers 0%, I'm going to really check it out.

[@mavricxx]

Some negatives I noticed coming from a Durango. Wish it came with a 24gal fuel tank. It comes with an 18gal tank and just feels like it uses more gas when in reality it doesn't. It just feels that way because it has a smaller tank. Next, wish there was more aftermarket support and they offered a Turbo and/or Supercharger for it. It feels laggy. A Supercharger or Turbo would make this vehicle more exciting and more passing power. Lastly, the front end I'm not a fan of. Love the side and Rear profile but he headlights look ugly to me. Overall, great car. This engine is proven and very reliable.

[@Jose_hernandez970]

Would like to have seen the tan/beige interior. Not a fan of the black. Green/tan is much classier color combination

[@taserface9073]

My wife wants the green/tan combo.

[@m.newton556]

Thanks for the video

[@ryanmulhern6241]

18 Month lease residual values are extremely high, making this an attractive SUV to lease too.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Yep that was covered in my full review as well

[@ClassicFIHD]

The black-on-black key fob is terrible.

[@fanli279]

lol true！

[@khale7180]

I got my Pathfinder yesterday. In the dark, I can't tell front and back of the key fob.

[@timw2083]

LOL... Stingers and Tellurides made Kia dealerships get bougie 😆👑🎩💰

[@MeynMotorGroup]

So true and K900s

[@user-if7od3ne2z]

Are you sure that Android Auto is wireless on the SL premium? I recently bought one and the only way to connect it is by wire.

[@rojaychambers4603]

Have to be connected to the vehicles WiFi, which is an extra subscription

[@jazzbeau507]

Nice vehicle, good price.

[@hobolyf]

I love this! But it's hard to trust Nissan again.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

This is probably now the most tried and true option in the segment but I would still only lease

[@hobolyf]

@Exhaust Sports Auto jatco CVTs ruined the Nissan brand. Knowing that they are bad they still use those transmission in many of their cars, that show how they really care about the quality of their products. I want to buy the pathfinder, but highlander/4runners are safer options. I was in Mexico and rented a versa with a 4 speed auto transmission, and the engine and transmission were solid.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

@@hobolyf this has a 9 speed ZF.. but they have improved their Xtronic CVTs over time and honestly they perform better than most automatics in the segment. Honda has had an awful history with automatic transmissions and CVT transmissions but Honda never got scrutinized or had their reputation tarnished like Nissan which I think is very funny gives good insight into how the public views things

[@timw2083]

@@hobolyf I'm a Nismo fan and the early CVTs really hurt their reputation. I'm skeptical of Honda as well. Mazda and some Toyotas are the way to go for me right now

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Mazda is def solid their NA models are pretty excellent for long term keeping

[@GM-hc2xh]

I just bought a Pathfinder and can't find the navigation I tried the information I tried the menu no such luck I don't have a map at all do you have any please let me know where to find

[@afzalshaikh2128]

I thought cx9 smaller 3rd row

[@Joshua-2513]

When are you gonna review the new qx60

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Honestly probably never

[@bymaco825]

@@MeynMotorGroup why?

[@patmarlin2935]

There should be a class action lawsuit for the rear brakes wearing out at 15K miles in normal driving conditions. Stay away from this vehicle. Passenger seat is so low the passenger can't see anything. I hate the fact that it can't recognize a bike rack or trailer and slams on the brakes when backing. I have to disable the rear emergency braking every time I start the vehicle. Nissan really didn't think through it's engineering on this one. Did I mention I have had to pull over a couple of times to reboot the vehicle due to every idiot light coming on and erroring out!!! Took pictures and showed my Nissan dealership maintenance and they replaced my battery thinking it would resolve the issues. NOPE! It still does it especially up in the mountain passes. Once again stay away from this POS.

[@yankeesusa1]

Can you specify what year you have? Any links to the massive issues with the breaks?

[@Excalabur50]

👍👍😊😊

[@MeynMotorGroup]

👍

[@tonyson587]

Cx9 3rd row is worse cmon

[@wiesiarybicka5891]

It's 4WD, not AWD anymore.

[@cordelearts]

What’s the difference?

[@Jose_hernandez970]

Not exactly. While the badge says 4x4, I can assure you it’s still a clutch based awd system. The Nissan marketing department developed the terminology 4x4-i despite it being a full time awd system. This is a completely different system than that in the trucks.

[@modernsoccer1860]

All the all new models from this to pilot to highlander are all junk, go and read what owners are saying on edmunds

[@MeynMotorGroup]

So what do you plan on buying?
