Owner Complaints (2)
Your brake pedal went to the floor while braking, causing reduced stopping power that could have made you overshoot an intersection. After that initial incident, the brakes returned to normal operation on subsequent drives. Your dealership has inspected the brake system thoroughly including the booster, master cylinder, pads, rotors, and fluid, but cannot find any problems. The fix may involve brake fluid replacement, master cylinder service, or brake booster inspection if the problem occurs again.

When your transmission is in Neutral, the parking brake cannot hold your car on an incline or slope. You may notice the car will roll even with the parking brake engaged, though this problem doesn't occur when the transmission is in Park (since the transmission itself prevents rolling). The owner reports this issue appears across 2012 and newer Pathfinders at multiple dealerships. The fix may involve inspecting the parking brake system components or adjusting the brake cable tension.
