2005 Nissan Pathfinder Electrical Problems

Your dashboard lights and instrument cluster go completely dark while you're driving, and your engine loses throttle response even though it keeps running. The only way to restore normal operation is to turn the vehicle off and restart it on the road. This has happened multiple times, including at highway speeds, and creates a serious safety risk.

Your 2005 Nissan Pathfinder developed a leak under the front that turned out to be brake fluid damaging the battery. After replacing the battery and repairing the brake line, the battery kept failing repeatedly. The dealer eventually found a defective radiator leaking fluid into the transmission, which led to complete engine failure. The vehicle was not repaired, and the issues started around 90,000 miles.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DIGITAL FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED THE INCORRECT FUEL MILEAGE. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF DUE TO NO FUEL BEING INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 115,000.

I DRIVE THE CAR AND PARK AND THEN WHEN I GO TO START THE CAR AGAIN IT DOESN'T START SO I HAVE TO CALL A TOW COMPANY TO GET A JUMP TO START THE CAR AND STARTS RIGHT UP. I HAVE TAKEN TO NISSAN MANY TIMES AND THEY SAID NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED MANY TIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.I GOT STUCK THE LAST TIME AND IT WAS FAR SO I HAD TO LEAVE IT AT A FAMILY MEMBERS HOUSE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ON GOING PROBLEM AND NISSAN DOES NOT HONOR THEIR MANUFACTURE WARRANTY AND ALSO THE EXTENDED WARRANTY I HAD. I WOULD LIKE NISSAN TO BUY BACK MY CAR BECAUSE I CAN'T EVEN SELL IT LIKE THIS AND I NEED A CAR TO GET AROUND I'M DISABLED ALSO. I'M TOTALLY DISCUSSED WITH NISSAN.

MY NISSAN CRANKS BUT DON'T START, DON'T KNOW WAS WRONG.

WITHOUT ANY WARNING AND SPORADICALLY AS I AM DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT WILL JERK AND THEN SHUT OFF, LEAVING ME WITH NO CONTROL OVER THE STEERING OR BRAKES. SOMETIMES IT WILL BE HARD TO START BUT WILL EVENTUALLY START AND THIS IS ALSO A RANDOM OCCURANCE. MY MAIN CONCERN IS IT SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING AND LEAVING ME WITH NO CONTROL.

FUEL GAUGE IS FAULTY. FUEL LEVEL WILL READ 1/2 FULL AND YET APPROACH EMPTY. THE VEHICLE HAS RUN OUT OF GAS FOUR TIMES, PUTTING THE DRIVER AND OCCUPANTS IN A DANGEROUS POSITION.

CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE ALMOST CAUSING A CRASH. DEALER SAYS IT WAS CAMSHAFT AND CRANK SENSORS CHARGED ME $609.00 TO REPAIR. CAR HAD ONLY 86,261 MILES AND SHOULD NOT HAVE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. NO RECALL ON SOMETHING THAT CAN CAUSE CAR TO SHUT OFF? CURRENTLY HAVING TO GET THE FUEL TANK PRESSURE SENSOR REPLACED COSTING ANOTHER $250 NOT INCLUDING INSTALLATION. CURRENT MILEAGE IS ONLY 106K.

AS I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 24 WITH A LOT OF TRAFFIC,I WAS RUNNING THE SPEED LIMIT ABOUT 75MPH AND SUDDENLY IT JUST TURN OFF.MY STEERING WHEEL LOCK UP AND I DIDN'T HAD NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE .ME AND MY FAMILY WAS TERRIFYING ABOUT THE SITUATION WE WAS GOING THREW.BUT WE WAS LUCKY NOTHING HAPPEN TO US.ITS NOT THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPEN IT DONE IT A FEW TIMES BEFORE.I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SHIP BUT THEY SAY THAT ITS NOT SHOWING ANY CODES.

VEHICLE KEEPS SHUTTING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. BUT RESTARTING INSTANTLY SOMETIMES. SOMETIMES 5 TO TEN MINUTES. *TR

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, MECHANIC SAID O2 SENSORS WERE BAD, & REPLACE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF FOR A FEW DAYS. CAME BACK ON. THEN SUV STARTED RUNNING ROUGHLY, LOSING POWER. VDC/SLIP LIGHT CAME ON, TRUCK WAS DIFFICULT TO START, THEN IT CUT OFF IN TRAFFIC A FEW DAYS LATER. FOUND RESEARCH ON ECM RELAY. HAD IT REPLACED,TRUCK STILL HAVING DIFFICULTY STARTING. TODAY IT CUT OFF IN TRAFFIC AGAIN. MECHANIC SAID CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CMP BANK 1 BAD, CATALYTIC CONVERTER BANK 1 & 2 BAD. FUEL SYSTEM FAULTY AND IGNITION SYSTEM FAULTY. STILL PAYING ON TRUCK. *TR

2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER WAS LOCKING UP & STALLING AT LOW SPEEDS JUNE 2013. I TOOK IT TO NISSAN & PAID $400 FOR SUPPOSEDLY A BAD CAMSHAFT & BAD CRANKSHAFT. NOT MORE THAN A MONTH LATER THE VEHICLE IS STALLING YET AGAIN. FURIOUS I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A NON NISSAN DEALER. THE OTHER MECHANIC FELT ECM RECALL & FAULTY ECM WAS THE CAUSE. HE TOOK IT BACK TO NISSAN & INSISTED THE DO THE RECALLED PART & THE BAD ECM. SERVICE WAS UPSET THAT HE WENT IN THERE TELLING THEM THE PROBLEM. THEY FREE OF CHARGE GOT MY CAR GOING AGAIN. SUPPOSEDLY MY KEY HAD "RESET" ITSELF. WHICH "COULD BE CAUSED BY A BATTERY BEING DEAD FOR TOO LONG OR BEING JUMP STARTED". OUR BATTERY WAS NEW & ONLY MAYBE 6 MONTHS OLD. NISSAN SERVICE MANAGER CLAIMED SHE CHECKED THE GROUND & IT WAS ALL OK. JUST THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS NEEDED REPLACEMENT FOR ABOUT $2000 BUT WERE NOT THE CAUSE OF STALLING OR THE KEY RESETTING ITSELF. SHE INSISTED THE ECM WAS GOOD & THE RECALLED PART HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. A WEEK LATER & HERE I AM AGAIN WITH A CAR THAT WONT START. THIS TIME THE NISSAN TECH CAME TO THE STORE WHERE I WAS STRANDED AT. HIS MACHINE COULDN'T EVEN READ THE CODES & HE SAID MAYBE IT WAS GROUND WIRES IN MY DASH OR THE ECM BUT HARD TO SAY UNLESS I PAID TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AGAIN! OF COURSE I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT FOR THEM TO LOOK AT IT. I WOULDN'T MIND AS MOST FOR MINOR REPAIRS/MAITENANCE BUT IT SEEMS THIS YEAR/MODEL IS PURE CRAP. AFTER READING OTHER COMPLAINTS I REALIZE THAT MY CAR SHAKING AT 60+ MILES WHEN I DO HIT THE FREEWAY IS A HUGE PROBLEM AS WELL! WE LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN WHERE WE DON'T USUALLY DRIVE THOSE HIGH SPEEDS SO I NEVER REALLY THOUGHT MUCH OF IT UNTIL NOW. NISSAN KNOWS VERY WELL THESE ARE HUGE PROBLEM CARS YET DOESN'T CARE! THESE VEHICLES ARE NOT SAFE. THE STALLING HAS HAPPENED AT INTERSECTIONS OR DRIVING!!

WENT TO CLOSE DOOR AND WOULD NOT SHUT. IT WAS STUCK IN THE LOCK POSITION, COULD NOT UNLOCK MANUALLY OR WITH THE KEY FOB. GOT DOOR SHUT, GOT TO DESTINATION AND COULD NOT OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. WOULD NOT UNLOCK MANUALLY OR WITH KEY FOB AND HAD TO GET OUT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. *TR

I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT MY 2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER'S ELECTRICAL COMPONENT WAS "DEAD." THE CAR NEEDS A NEW IPMD AND ECM MODULES. THE DEALER QUOTED ME A PRICE OF $2200 FOR PARTS AND LABOR. AFTER EXTENSIVE RESEARCH, I LEARNED THAT THERE IS CURRENTLY A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. MY CAR IS STILL WITH THE DEALER. I WILL ADVISE THEM OF THE RECALL ON MONDAY AND REQUEST THAT MY CAR IS REPAIRED.

WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH ON THE LIE MY CAR STALLED AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHILE I HAD MY SONS IN THE CAR. CAR COMPLETELY DIED WHILE MOVING ON THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY WITHOUT WARNING. I HAD TO TOW MY CAR TO THE MECHANIC AND WAS INFORMED THAT IS MY FUSE PANEL, THIS WAS IN DECEMBER 2010. I HAD THE FUSE PANEL REPLACED WITH AN ORIGINAL PART AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN IN JAN. 2011 WHILE DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY ON THE ROAD. *TR

2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER. TWICE STALLED ON THE ROAD LEAVING ME WITH NO BRAKES. TWO CLOSE CALLS WITH MY FAMILY ON BOARD. IT SITS IN MY DRIVEWAY USELESS BECAUSE OF THE FEAR I MAY BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND STALLS ALL OVER AGAIN, THIS TIME AT THE WRONG PLACE OR TIME CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH!!!! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT WAS TRAVELING 40 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE BECAME HESITANT TO THE CONTACTS ATTEMPTS TO ACCELERATE. SECONDS LATER, ALL OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHERE THE BODY ELECTRICAL WIRES WERE REPLACED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

2005 NISSAN IPDM PROBLEMS. AFTER READING ONLINE EVERYONE IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM. WHAT ARE RECALLS FOR? 63,000 MILES AND A DEAD TRUCK. THE BIG COMPANY NISSAN NEEDS TO STEP UP AND FIX THIS SMALL PROBLEM INSTEAD OF MILKING CONSUMERS FOR UNNECESSARY REPAIRS "TRYING" TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

THE PROBLEM IS THE LOST POWER / DIED RANDOMLY IN VARIOUS SITUATIONS ON THE NISSAN PATHFINDER 2005. THE FAILURE HAS OCCURRED AT A LOW SPEED ACCELERATING INTO AN INTERSECTION, AT A STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, AT A STEADY SPEED ON A CITY ROAD, AND AT A HIGHWAY SPEED. THE FAILURE ALWAYS OCCURS WITHOUT WARNING OR FAILURE INDICATION. I LOST COMPLETE POWER; THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT COMES ON ALONG WITH THE OTHER LIGHTS IN THE DASHBOARD LIKE IF THE KEY WAS JUST TURN ON WITHOUT STARTING. THIS FAILURE HAS BEEN VERY SCARY FOR MY FAMILY AS IT HAS OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY. NO ENGINE CODES WERE FOUND, SO NO REPAIRS WERE ATTEMPTED BY THE DEALER. WHAT IS MOST DISCOMFORTING IS THAT WHEN I DID RESEARCH ON THE WEB, I FOUND THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL. HERE IS A ONE OF THE MANY LINKS I FOUND: HTTP://WWW.ABOUTAUTOMOBILE.COM/COMPLAINT/2005/NISSAN/PATHFINDER/ELECTRICAL+SYSTEM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH THE VEHICLE STALLED. SHE STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS. SHE WAITED FOR A FEW MINUTES AND ATTEMPTED TO RESTARTED THE VEHICLE BUT IT DID NOT START. SHE CALLED A TOWING COMPANY AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER ADVISED HER THAT THE INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BY THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WERE RECALLING CERTAIN VEHICLES FOR THE FAILURE BUT HER VEHICLE WAS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A VIN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 75,000.

2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER. ENGINE CUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN TRAFFIC, ONE TIME AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. VEHICLE STARTS ABOUT 20 MINUTES LATER. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER WHO ADVISED THAT IT'S 'MOST LIKELY' IPDM FAILURE BUT THEY ARE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE AS IT DOESN'T THROW A CODE. DEALER KEPT CAR 5 DAYS AND "TRIED" TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE TO POSITIVELY DIAGNOSE, BUT WAS UNABLE TO. THE DAY AFTER PICKING IT UP FROM THE DEALER THE ENGINE QUIT AGAIN IN TRAFFIC. NOW WE ARE TOLD THAT OUR WARRANTY COMPANY WILL ONLY COVER IF THEY CAN POSITIVELY DIAGNOSE. MY TODDLER WAS IN THE CAR THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED AND OUR CAR DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION BETWEEN 2 6-LANE ROADS. COULDN'T REMOVE THE VEHICLE FOR 30 MINUTES. JUST WAITING FOR IT TO HAPPEN WHILE MERGING ON THE INTERSTATE DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. HOPEFULLY THERE ARE NO INJURIES OR FATALITIES AS A RESULT OF THIS FAILURE. *TR

THE 2005 PATHFINDER HAS LOST POWER / DIED RANDOMLY IN VARIOUS SITUATIONS 4 TIMES IN TWO MONTHS. AT LOW SPEED ACCELERATING INTO AN INTERSECTION, AT A STEADY 30MPH ON A CITY ROAD, AND AT 55MPH ON A HIGHWAY. THE FAILURE OCCURS WITHOUT WARNING. I LOSE COMPLETE POWER, THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT FADES IN AND OUT ALONG WITH OTHER LIGHTS. THIS FAILURE HAS BEEN VERY SCARY FOR MY FAMILY AS IT HAS OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY 15YEAR OLD DAUGHTER LEARNING TO DRIVE. SHE HAS ALSO BEEN STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AS THE VEHICLE IS STALLED AND CANNOT BE RESTARTED. WHEN TRYING TO RE-START, THE ENGINE WILL TURN OVER AND MAINTAIN A SPUTTER, BUT NOT REALLY RUN AND NOT ALLOW MOVEMENT. NO ENGINE CODES WERE FOUND AFTER TWO SEPARATE INCIDENTS, SO NO REPAIRS WERE ATTEMPTED. *TR

WELL, WELL, THANK GOODNESS FOR SITES LIKE THIS. I TOOK MY 2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER SE TO THE DEALERSHIP....CAR HAD BEEN BUCKING AND STALLING RANDOMLY. THEY PLAYED STUPID AT THE DEALERSHIP, EVEN HAD THE GALL TO SUGGEST AFTER RUNNING THE $95 DIAGNOSTICS THAT MY CAR WAS FINE. YEAH RIGHT. I JUST HAD NOTHING BETTER TO DO THAN DROP OFF A CAR IN WORKING CONDITION... THEY SUGGESTED I LEAVE THE CAR THERE OVERNIGHT AND THEY WOULD RUN THE DIAGNOSTIC AGAIN AND VOILA ...ITS THE IPDM! THEY WANT AROUND $600 TO FIX BECAUSE ITS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I'VE HAD TO CHANGE THE BATTERY AT 20K MILES, REPLACE THE FUEL SENSORS, TAKE THE CAR BACK AND FORTH MULTIPLE TIMES BECAUSE SENSORS WERE GOING OFF FOR NO APPARENT REASON. APPARENTLY THIS ALL COMES BACK TO THAT FAULTY IPDM THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN LOOKED AT FROM THE BEGINNING--WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. NOW I'VE SPENT ALL THIS MONEY ON FIXING THINGS THAT THIS IPDM HAS CREATED AND NOW THEY FIND THE SOURCE IS THE IPDM CONVENIENTLY AFTER WARRANTY IS EXPIRED??? NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND I WAS TOLD BY A NISSAN USA CUSTOMER SERVICE REP THAT THIS PART IS ON BACKORDER BECAUSE OF WIDESPREAD DEMAND. HMMMM...COULD IT BE BECAUSE IT DOESN'T WORK, IS FAULTY AND SHOULD BE RECALLED???? YES. NISSAN SHOULD BE ASHAMED TO PUT A CAR LIKE THIS ON THE ROAD WITH THESE KNOWN PROBLEMS. I AM DONE WITH THIS BRAND. UNSAFE. *TR

NISSAN PATHFINDERS 2005-2009, ARE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE IPDM, WHICH CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO STALL WHILE DRIVING. I AM NOT SURE IF THERE HAS BEEN ANY INJURIES FROM THIS PROBLEM, BUT THE POTENTIAL IS THERE, IF THE DRIVER IS TRYING TO MERGE INTO HIGH SPEED TRAFFIC AND THIS HAPPENS, AN ACCIDENT IS SURE TO HAPPEN. I HAD THIS PROBLEM, AS I SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR A SOLUTION THERE ARE PLENTY OF OTHER OWNERS HAVING THE PROBLEM, WITH THEIR VEHICLES. THE POST I FOUND MY SOLUTION ON STATES THAT NISSAN KNOWS OF THIS PROBLEM, BUT NO RECALL TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

THE IPDM/ER (FUSE AND RELAY BOX) FAILED ON OUR NISSAN PATHFINDER IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR. THE CAR JUST SHUTDOWN, ALL ELECTRICAL FAILED. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, IT TURNS OUT ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE. THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING WITH TITAN NISSAN TRUCKS. THE CAR SHUTTING OFF RANDOMLY CAN BE DEADLY! IT'S ONE OF THE MOST SCARIEST THINGS TO HAPPEN WITH YOUR KIDS IN THE CAR. THERE IS A NATIONAL BACK ORDER FOR THIS PART FROM NISSAN WHICH PROVES THAT THIS IS AN EPIDEMIC PROBLEM AND NISSAN SHOULD MAKES THIS A NATIONAL RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE ENDS UP DEAD! *TR

MY 2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER HAS A BAD IPDM (PART# 284B7-ZC00A) WHICH MAKES THE TRUCK RANDOMLY SHUT DOWN. MINE SHUT DOWN IN AN INTERSECTION AND I WAS ALMOST T-BONED. DEALER HAS TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR NISSAN, AND LOOKING ON THE INTERNET, THE PROBLEM IS RAMPANT. THANK GOD IT DIDN'T FAIL WHEN I HAD MY FAMILY BACK COUNTY LEAVING US STRANDED. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS, THEY ARE REDESIGNING THE PART (SO I AM TOLD) - THEY SHOULD RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT. *TR

VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING,LOSING POWER, AND WON'T RESTART UNTIL MINUTES LATER. THIS PROBLEM RECURS,INTERMITTENTLY OVER THE DAY. TOOK CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALER. DEALER WAS FINALLY ABLE TO REPRODUCE THE MALFUNCTION WHILE CAR WAS ON THE SELF-DIAG ,RESULTS WAS : INTERNAL FAILURE @ IPDM.[ECM LOSES POWER SUPPLY FROM IPDM.] REMOVED AND REPLACED PART ; DAT 284B7-ZC00A [CONTROLLER UNIT.] ALSO REQUEST BG FUEL INDUCTION FLUSHING SERVICE.

THE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED UNTIL THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. THE REAR HATCHBACK LATCH WAS NOT PROPERLY SECURING THE DOOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO A MALFUNCTION WITH THE DOOR STRIKER. THE VEHICLE WILL BE TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED OF THE SAFETY RISK INVOLVED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 46,000. UPDATED 10/01/2008 . *LJ
