Description of the problem | The driver's side sun visor has an inner plastic piece broken which makes the sun visor randomly fall, blocking my view when driving. This is a common issue on many 2014 pathfinders that can be fixed by making the parts (visor) better, or by selling a replacement part for the plastic piece that easily breaks. Instead, the manufacturer only sells as a replacement part, the exact same visor that is likely to break again. A second issue on this car is the driver's side door handle inside and outside the door. I find myself often trapped inside the car or outside the car due to this door handle malfunction. This could easily become a life/death safety issue if ever i was in an accident and was trapped inside the car. This is another common defect on this car caused by a cheap plastic piece breaking. Another problem besides being trapped in the car is that sometimes the door opens while driving. These safety issues common in the 2014 nissan pathfinder should be corrected immediately with a safety recall. |
