Description of the problem | We are grandparents to 16 grandchildren. We bought our 2014 pathfinder february 21, 2015 so we would be able to take some of grandchildren on trips with us. On april 4th, 2015 while driving on the freeway with 5 of our grandchildren the engine stopped with no warning. We almost got hit 6 different times while trying to figure out what happened and what to do. The fear that we felt for the safety of our grandchildren is describable. Something no one should have to experience especially driving a brand new vehicle. The engine ended up shutting off 2 more times that same day. We took the pathfinder into the dealership only to be told that they did not find anything wrong.... April 11th, 2015 while driving our grandchildren out of town to a baseball game the engine shut off again... At this point we do not feel safe driving this vehicle, which is sad because it is brand new and we paid good money for it. It is back in the shop as of today, april 16th, with no answers. |
