Electrical: Stereo display and infotainment system often freezes, lags, or has performance issues that cause delays in Camera system from functioning, radio functionality, and connected audio sources from functioning. Has already been replaced, and replacement now has severe backlighting issues, sound quality is reduced. Transmission: transmission often jerks or “clunks” when shifting. Issue occurs when at a complete stop to Drive, or Park to Reverse. Severe delay when shifting. Transmission “reprogram” and “patch/update” was performed but only provided slight improvement. Brakes: Upon warming up, brakes sound like grinding, wobble, and sounds like metal against metal. Car has been in repair numerous times since purchase without proper repair.

Seats
I own a 2022 Nissan Pathfinder. The front passenger seat is far too low. For me, at 6', it's feels ridiculous. However, for people at or under 5'2", it is downright dangerous, resulting in striking heads on the dashboard. the NHTSA should look into this poorly designed front passenger seat issue before people get hurt. Thanks…

The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Pathfinder. The contact stated while driving at various speeds and depressing the brake pedal, the brake rotors shuddered violently and the vehicle hesitated to respond, causing a 50 ft. stopping distance delay. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who informed the contact that the rotors were corroded; however, the mechanic could not duplicate the failure. The failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, where the same information was provided. The contact stated while driving 55-60 MPH and depressing the brake pedal, the failure reoccurred, and the vehicle nearly crashed into a vehicle that was at a 2ft. distance. The driver assist mode engaged and the steering wheel started shuddering. The contact was able to prevent the vehicle from crashing and continuously applied tremendous pressure to the brake pedal until the vehicle stopped. There was a 100ft. stopping distance delay. The contact was able to continue driving. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the brake rotors were extremely worn, and the brake pads and rotors needed to be replaced; however, the parts were on a national backorder. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was filed. The manufacturer later informed the contact that no assistance would be provided. The vehicle was not repaired.
