Recalls and investigations
Latches/locks/linkages, hood, latchJun 13, 2022
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2013-2016 Pathfinder vehicles. On certain Pathfinder vehicles, the secondary hood latch may malfunction and remain in the unlatched, unsecured, position when the hood is closed.
An unsecured hood could unexpectedly open while driving, obstructing the driver's view, and increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace the bell crank assembly, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed March 26, 2025. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall are R22A2 R22A3 and R24B7.

Exterior lighting, brake lights, switchJan 20, 2021
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2013-2015 Nissan Pathfinder vehicles. The location of the brake light switch may cause the brake light switch relay to repeatedly open and close. Overtime, this can cause the relay to stick in the "ON" position, with the brake lights remaining illuminated even when the brakes are not applied. Additionally, this may interfere with the brake-shift interlock, allowing the driver to shift the vehicle out of the "Park" position, without depressing the brake pedal.
Continual illumination of the brake lights can prevent other drivers from realizing the vehicle is actually slowing down, increasing the risk of a crash. With the brake override activated, the driver will not be able to accelerate normally, increasing the risk of a crash. The driver can shift the vehicle out of the "PARK" position without depressing the brake, allowing the vehicle to rollaway, increasing the risk of injury.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, either re-install the brake light switch or swap positions with the Automatic Speed Control Device (ASCD) switch; depending on the model year vehicle. In addition, the brake light relay will be replaced with a new one. All repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began March 1, 2021. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall PC786. Note: this recall supersedes 16V-380.

Air bags, sensor, occupant classificationApr 26, 2016
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Nissan Maxima, 2013-2016 Nissan Altima, NV200, LEAF, Sentra, and Pathfinder, 2014-2016 Nissan NV200 Taxi, Infiniti QX60, QX60 Hybrid, and Q50 Hybrid, 2014-2017 Nissan Rogue and Infiniti Q50, 2015-2016 Nissan Murano, Murano Hybrid, and Chevrolet City Express, 2014-2015 Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid, and 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles. In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash.
If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury.
Nissan will notify their owners. Chevrolet City Express owners will be notified by General Motors. Dealers will reprogram the Air Bag Control Unit (ACU) and OCS Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in Altima, Maxima, Murano, Rogue, and Sentra vehicles, and replace the OCS ECU in LEAF, NV200, NV200 Taxi, Pathfinder, Infiniti Q50, JX35, and QX60 and Chevrolet City Express vehicles, free of charge. Interim notices were sent to owners on May 31, 2016. Owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts become available. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669, Infiniti customer service at 1-888-833-3216 or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020.

Air bags, frontalOct 20, 2015
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Altima and Pathfinder vehicles, 2013-2014 Nissan Sentra vehicles, 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles, 2014-2015 Infiniti QX60 vehicles and 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid vehicles. The affected vehicles received an incorrect occupant classification system (OCS) control unit during a repair. These OCS control units may incorrectly classify the front passenger seat as empty, when it is occupied by an adult.
If the OCS does not detect an adult occupant in the passenger seat, the passenger air bag would be deactivated. Failure of the passenger airbag to deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of injury to the passenger.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will update the OCS software, free of charge. The recall began on November 30, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

Service brakesJan 14, 2015
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Nissan Pathfinder and Infiniti QX60 vehicles manufactured August 14, 2014, to November 5, 2014, and 2014-2015 Nissan Rogue vehicles manufactured August 12, 2014, to November 15, 2014. During the assembly process, the front wheel hub assembly fasteners may not have been properly torqued.
The under-torqued fasteners may result in a brake caliper separating from the wheel assembly causing a reduction in braking performance or reduced steering control. These conditions increase the risk of a crash.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and tighten any loose bolts to the proper specification, free of charge. The recall began February 2, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER WITH 43,000 MILES FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS VEHICLE HAS GIVING US PROBLEMS ACCELERATING AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AND WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEEDS. I WOULD START TO ACCELERATE AFTER A COMPLETE STOP AND THE PATHFINDER WOULD ONLY MOVE AT A SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN IDLE SPEED UNTIL I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THEN ONCE AGAIN ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. OTHER TIMES I WILL BE DRIVING AT A SPEED ABOVE 20 MILES PER HOUR AND THE PATHFINDER WILL NO LONGER ACCELERATE PAST THE CURRENT SPEED NO MATTER HOW HARD I PRESS THE ACCELERATOR UNTIL I TAP THE BRAKE AND THEN THE ACCELERATOR. I ALSO NOTICED THAT SOME TIMES WHEN ONE OF THESE EVENTS HAPPENS, THE SLIP LIGHT INDICATOR WILL COME ON AND STAY ON UNTIL THE PATHFINDER IS TURNED OFF AND BACK ON. THIS ISSUE CAN HAPPENS RANDOMLY. THIS VEHICLE IS USED TO TRANSPORT MY KIDS TO SCHOOL & ALMOST GOT INTO A COUPLE OF ACCIDENTS DUE TO VEHICLE NOT ACCELERATING FAST ENOUGH. WIFE WILL NOT DRIVE VEHICLE DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS NOW.
Service brakes, May 1, 2019
FOR APPROXIMATELY THE LAST MONTH THERE HAD BEEN A SHIMMY ON THE FRONT END. WHEN TAKING IT TO BE SERVICED AT THE NISSAN DEALER THERE WERE 13690 MILES ON THE CAR. THE CAR IS PRIMARILY DRIVEN LOCALLY A COUPLE OF TIMES WEEKLY BECAUSE THE OWNER WORKS FROM HOME. THE SERVICE CENTER CAME BACK AND SAID THERE WERE NO FRONT BRAKES LEFT AND WAS SURPRISED WE HAD GOTTEN IN. WHEN ASKED HOW THIS COULD HAPPEN AFTER SO FEW MILES THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE DRIVER MUST HAVE A HEAVY FOOT. THE DRIVER IS A 59 YEAR OLD WOMAN WHO ONLY DRIVES LOCALLY. THE BRAKES AND ROTORS WERE REPLACED. NISSAN CORPORATE WAS CONTACTED. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER CAME BACK AND STATED THAT THE BRAKE FLUID MAY HAVE BROKEN DOWN. BOTH EXPLANATIONS ARE IMPLAUSIBLE. A REGIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER CALLED TODAY AND GAVE NO OTHER EXPLANATION BUT STATED SINCE THE CAR WAS 14 MONTHS PAST WARRANTY THEY WOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE. WE HAVE SINCE CONTACTED TWO ACQUAINTANCES WHO ARE MECHANICS AND BOTH SAID NISSAN'S EXPLANATION IS NOT PLAUSIBLE. THIS AFFECTED ONLY THE FRONT BRAKES AND THE CALIPERS WERE UNAFFECTED. WE CAN SEND A COPY OF THE SERVICE BILL IF NEEDED.

LOSS OF POWER WHILE IN MOTION FROM A 35 MPH ZONE AND WENT DOWN TO 20 MPH RELEASE GAS PEDAL AND REGAINED POWER. I SEE THE SAME ISSUE REPORTED OTHER POSTS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE BEFORE THE LOSS OF LIFE.
Vehicle speed control, Service brakes, Apr 24, 2019
THE BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ON WHILE DRIVING AND AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF. AT SEVERAL POINTS, THE ACCELERATOR STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING, THIS HAPPENED ON A FOUR-LANE STREET AND ON RESIDENTIAL STREETS.

VEHICLE BEGAN ISSUES WITH NO ACCELERATION AFTER COMING OFF OF THE BRAKES. HAS TO DOUBLE TAP BRAKES TO GET VEHICLE TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE. THEN IT PROGRESSED INTO THE TAIL LIGHTS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF, WHICH WOULD IN TURN DRAIN THE BATTERY. THEN IT PROGRESSED ONCE AGAIN INTO THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AS IT WAS NOT SENSING THE BRAKE BEING DEPRESSED ON A PUSH TO START IGNITION SYSTEM. THE FIX WAS FAULTY RELAYS KNOWN IN PRIOR YEARS FROM 2013-2014 SAME FAULT IN 2015 MODEL BUT NO ACTIVE RECALL. SECOND ISSUE WHEN A/C SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED THERE'S A VIBRATION COMING OFF OF THE FAN ASSEMBLY WHICH CAUSES A LOUD SOUND HEARD WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. ALSO A SEPARATE RECALL ON 2013-2014 PATHFINDER BUT DOES NOT COVER THE 2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER.

"TAKATA RECALL" THE CAR LOST POWER INTERMITTENTLY. IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE FOR A FEW MINUTES. THIS HAPPENS WHEN IN STATIONARY ON A CITY STREET AS WELL AS HIGHWAYS.
Electrical system, Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 8, 2019
MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL ISSUES AFTER DEALER SERVICE FOR 80,000 MILES. THE SAFETY ISSUE IS INTERMITTENT ACCELERATION ISSUES WHEN MERGING INTO TRAFFIC OR STARTING FROM A FULL STOP. LITTLE TO NO ACCELERATION IN THOSE SITUATIONS. OTHER ISSUES THAT CAME UP AT THE SAME TIME INCLUDE: A) INTERMITTENT BRAKE LIGHTS STAYING ON WITH VEHICLE PARKED AND POWERED OFF AND B) INTERMITTENT SKID WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATING FOR NO REASON.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Engine, Apr 2, 2019
IN THE LAST SEVERAL WEEKS, I AM EXPERIENCING LOSS OF ACCELERATION FOR MY NISSAN PATHFINDER 2015 (33,000 MILES). FOR SOME REASONS, THERE IS NO ACCELERATION NOR RPM INCREASED WHEN I FLOORED THE GAS PEDAL FOR SEVERAL SECONDS AFTER RELEASING THE GAS PEDAL (COASTING) DUE TO TRAFFIC STOPS OR WANT TO MAKE A TURN OR AFTER FULL STOP. THE CAR WAS COASTING AROUND 20 MPH AND DIDN'T ACCELERATE.

THE CAR ONLY HAS 22,000 MILES AND THE CENTER DUAL COOLING FAN HAS ALREADY STARTED MAKING A LOUD NOISE UNFORTUNATELY AS A 2015 THESE VEHICLES IS OUT OF WARRANTY I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ONLINE AND IT SEEMS THAT IT'S BECOME A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE VEHICLE I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAS NOT BEING ON RECALL YET MULTIPLE PEOPLE ARE ALSO COMPLAINING AS THEY REPLACE THE PART AND IT GOES BAD WITHIN MONTHS SO IT SEEMS THIS IS A ENGINEERING PROBLEM
Other or unspecified, Apr 1, 2019
ON 12/22/18 WE WERE LEAVING THE DRIVEWAY WHEN WE HEARD A LOUD BANGING/CLICKING NOISE FROM THE COOLING FAN ON THE DRIVER SIDE. HAVE TAKEN IT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC AND THEY SAID THAT THE ENTIRE COOLING FAN ASSEMBLE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. SPOKE WITH CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS PART FOR 12-13 NISSAN PATHFINDERS, BUT NOT FOR THE 2015S. THEY GAVE ME A QUOTE OF $730.00 PLUS TAXES TO REPAIR. DON'T KNOW IF VEHICLE CAN EVEN BE DRIVEN BECAUSE IT IS UNKNOWN AS TO WHAT THE FAN IS BUMPING AGAINST. DEALER SAID IF IT IS BUMPING AGAINST THE RADIATOR, IT COULD CAUSE A LEAK OR SEVERE DAMAGE. IF THE FAN BLADES ARE HITTING SOMETHING ELSE, THEY COULD BREAK AND COULD CAUSE ENGINE DAMAGE. WE WOULD NEED TO HAVE VEHICLE TOWED ABOUT 60 MILES TO DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO REPLACE THE FAN ASSEMBLY.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL COMES ON RANDOMLY GOING DOWN THE ROAD OR AT A STOP LIGHT CAUSING THE CAR NOT TO ACCELERATE MAKING THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON ALL THE TIME CAR ONLY HAS 65000 MILES ON IT AFRAID GONNA GET HIT FROM NO ACCELERATION

I HAVE A 2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER. I HAD MY TRANSMISSION CHANGED UNDER WARRANTY AFTER TWO YEARS AND 8 MONTHS LATER I'VE STARTED TO HAVE ACCELERATION PROBLEMS AND THE BREAK LIGHTS STAY ON AFTER THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF. USUALLY AFTER A COMPLETE STOP OR YIELDING I CAN PUSH THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND NOTHING WILL HAPPEN FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. I ACTUALLY THOUGHT THE CAR TURNED OFF THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. ONE WEEK LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME I CALLED NISSAN CORPORATION AND WAS PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER AND TOLD TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER HAD THE CAR FOR 4 DAYS AND ONCE AGAIN STATED THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. TWO DAYS AFTER PICKING THE CAR UP, IT DID THE EXACT SAME THING. ONCE AGAIN I CALLED NISSAN CORPORATION AND LEFT THEM A MESSAGE. I CALLED THE DEALER AND WAS SURPRISED THAT THEY TOLD ME I COULDN'T BRING THE CAR IN, BECAUSE THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I SUBMIT THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN THAT SHOULD FORCE NISSAN TO RECALL ALL VEHICLES AFFECTED WITH NO ACCELERATION.

I JUST PURCHASED A USED 2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER WITH 24,000 MILES THREE MONTHS AGO. IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS ACCELERATING AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AND WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEEDS. I WOULD START TO ACCELERATE AFTER A COMPLETE STOP AND THE PATHFINDER WOULD ONLY MOVE AT A SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN IDLE SPEED UNTIL I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THEN ONCE AGAIN ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. OTHER TIMES I WILL BE DRIVING AT A SPEED ABOVE 20 MILES PER HOUR AND THE PATHFINDER WILL NO LONGER ACCELERATE PAST THE CURRENT SPEED NO MATTER HOW HARD I PRESS THE ACCELERATOR UNTIL I TAP THE BRAKE AND THEN THE ACCELERATOR. I ALSO NOTICED THAT SOME TIMES WHEN ONE OF THESE EVENTS HAPPENS, THE SLIP LIGHT INDICATOR WILL COME ON AND STAY ON UNTIL THE PATHFINDER IS TURNED OFF AND BACK ON. THIS ISSUE CAN HAPPEN SEVERAL TIMES IN ONE DAY OR NOT AT ALL FOR SEVERAL DAYS. I WAS ALMOST T-BONED TODAY WHILE CROSSING A STREET WHEN I HAD NO POWER. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG.

ENGINE RATTLING, TURNED OUT TO BE A FAULTY RADIATOR COOLING FAN. NEEDED TO REPLACE WHOLE FAN ASSEMBLY AFTER 50,000 MILES. INTERMITTENTLY BRAKE LIGHTS WILL STAY ON WHEN CAR IS PARKED, DRAINING THE BATTERY. PERHAPS A BRAKE RELAY SWITCH. ALSO INTERMITTENTLY, THE VEHICLE HAS SEVERE ISSUES ACCELERATING. IF GOING 40 MPH, AND ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE, THERE IS LITTLE TO NO RESPONSE. FROM FULL STOP, THERE IS OCCASIONALLY NO RESPONSE AT ALL UNTIL RELEASING AND REAPPLYING THE GAS PEDAL. THIS IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS!
Other or unspecified, Mar 18, 2019
THE RADIATOR COOLING FAN ASSEMBLY BECAME INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. COOLING FAN BEGAN TO MAKE WEIRD NOISES, HAD TO REPLACE COMPLETE FAN ASSEMBLY AFTER 40K MILES.

BREAK LIGHTS WILL STAY ON EVEN IF THE CAR IS PARKED. IT WILL STAY ON WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS I HAVE TO DEPRESS BRAKE PEDAL TWICE. THE OTHER ISSUE IS LOSS OF POWER. WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THE CAR WILL NOT GO WHEN I PUSH THE GAS. EVEN IF THE ACCELERATOR IS FULLY DEPRESSED THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE. THIS ALSO OCCURS WHILE IN MOTION. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND THERE WAS LOSS OF POWER.
Electrical system, Service brakes, Engine, Mar 15, 2019
THREE TIMES THIS WEEK WE HAVE TRIED TO ACCELERATE OUR VEHICLE WITH NO RESPONSE. IN ADDITION, THREE TIMES THIS WEEK THE BRAKE LIGHTS HAVE STAYED ON AFTER SHUTTING THE VEHICLE OFF. THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL STAY ON UNTIL YOU OPERATE THE VEHICLE AGAIN. THE ONE DAY WE DIDNT NOTICE FOR ABOUT 40 MINUTES. I HAVE READ THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS FOR THE 2013 AND 2014 BRAKE RELAY SWITCH SO I'M THINKING THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE.
Electrical system, Electronic stability control (ESC), Mar 15, 2019
FROM A COMPLETE STOP MY CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE FASTER THAN 10 MPH. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES NOW. THE FIRST TIME I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC AND WHEN IT WAS TIME TO ACCELERATE, I WAS UNABLE TO EVEN PRESSING THE GAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND BRAKE, THEN HIT THE GAS AND IT WAS ABLE TO GO AGAIN. THE NEXT TIME WAS AFTER BRAKING AT A STOP SIGN. THE THIRD TIME WAS AFTER STOPPING AT A RED LIGHT. I HAD HEAVY TRAFFIC BEHIND ME AND I COULD ONLY GO 10 MPH. I EVEN NOTICED AFTER I PARKED MY CAR AND GOT OUT OF IT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE STILL ON AS IF SOMEONE WAS SITTING THERE PRESSING THE BRAKE-WHICH WASN'T THE CASE AT ALL. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAD MY CHILD IN THE CAR ALL THREE TIMES AND IM LUCKY I DID NOT GET REAR ENDED.

BREAK LIGHTS WILL STAY ON EVEN IF THE CAR IS PARKED. IT WILL STAY ON WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS I HAVE TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FOR THE BREAK LIGHTS TO GO OFF. REDICULOUS! THE OTHER ISSUE IS LOSS OF POWER. USUALLY WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE SKID DUMMY LIGHT WILL TURN ON AND STAY ON. WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THE CAR WILL NOT GO WHEN I PUSH THE GAS. EVEN IF THE ACCELERATOR IS FULLY DEPRESSED THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE. THIS ALSO OCCURS WHILE IN MOTION. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND THERE WAS LOSS OF POWER. I HAVE ALMOST GOTTEN INTO SEVERAL ACCIDENTS WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND FROM MY RESEARCH I AM NOT THE ONLY OWNER OF PATHFINDER THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. THIS IS A TOTAL SAFETY ISSUE AND THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SOME ONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED!!!

AT LESS THAN 41,000 MILES, THE BEARINGS IN THE DUAL RADIATOR AND CONDENSER FAN ASSEMBLY ARE WORN AND THE FAN ASSEMBLY SHAKES WHEN THE FANS TURN ON. IF THE FANS BREAK WHILE DRIVING, IT MAY DAMAGE THE ENGINE OR CAUSE THE ENGINE TO OVERHEAT. MANY OWNERS OF THIS NISSAN MODEL HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME ISSUE OCCURRING AT 30,000 - 60,000 MILES. THE FAN ASSEMBLY APPEARS TO BE UNRELIABLE.

MY VEHICLE HAS 47000 MILES ON IT AND THE FAN HAS FAILED CAUSING NOISE WHEN EITHER THE HEAT OR AC IS TURNED ON. I SEE THAT IT IS A COMMON COMPLAINT
Engine, Feb 25, 2019
DURING NORMAL OPERATION, RADIATOR COOLING FAN MAKES A BUZZING NOISE WHEN HVAC SYSTEM IS TURNED ON TO ANY SETTING. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, PASSENGER SIDE RADIATOR FAN IS OFF BALANCE, CAUSING VIBRATION AND BUZZING SOUND. WITH VEHICLE TURNED OFF, FAN BLADE WAS VERIFIED LOSS. THE VEHICLE HAS 30,200 MILES. DURING MY RESEARCH, I HAVE NOTICED MANY SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE SAME VEHICLE BETWEEN 30,000 AND 50,000 MILES. WITH A BACKGROUND IN AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE AND QUALITY ENGINEERING, IT IS MY OPINION THAT THE AMOUNT OF VIBRATION IS SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH TO EVENTUALLY CONTACT THE RADIATOR OR BREAK LOOSE, POSSIBLY CAUSING A COOLANT LEAK OR OTHER UNDERHOOD DAMAGE.
