Pros:
  • Rugged styling, carlike interior, reliability record.
Cons:
  • Weak V6 engine, tight rear seat, high price tag.

  • Great Vehicle, Dealer Lacking - 2000 Nissan Pathfinder
    By -

    Vehicle is great even though I dont need an SUV. 50,000 miles on only oil changes and a wheel alignment. The dealer, Country Line Nissan, did rip us off on a CD Changer, which we paid for but never received. What we did receive was hollow promises and shuffling back and forth between sales and service. I gave up; they won.

  • Great SUV - 2000 Nissan Pathfinder

    Great SUV and a great look on the road. Underpowered for 2000, but they fixed that in later years. Rear springs are a bit light for holding anything heavy in the back. Seems to have held its value VERY well. Especially considering all the rebates we got on it. All in all, a great SUV.

  • One of the best - 2000 Nissan Pathfinder
    By -

    Bought this car with 75K miles for commuting, and also for occasional off-road use. With regular maintenance, this car held up through mud, rain, snow, ice, and more off-roading than I expected. Very few problems with this car, the transmission started slipping around 160,000 miles, but it just kind of corrected itself? Also, since I bought it, the back passenger-side window wont roll down on its own, you have to operate it from the drivers seat. Today, this car just passed 200,000 and still no real, major problems.

  • 80000 miles and very few problems - 2000 Nissan Pathfinder
    By -

    Approaching 80k miles now and in the 6 years i have owned this vehicle it has required: 1. Oxygen sensor replaced at 50k - about $100 2. Exhaust worn out and replaced at 75k -probably due to amount of snow driving and salty roads up here in Canada 3. Tires replaced at 50k and 80k. I am very happy with this truck, it never breaks down on me.

  • I Love my Car! - 2000 Nissan Pathfinder
    By -

    I bought 2000 PF in 2001 with 9k miles and havent looked back! This car has taken me through alot over the years. In 2004 I was in a accident and the car flipped on its side . .major front end/side damage, but I walked away without a scratch! My insurance copy paid for all repairs and I am still driving the car today with no problems. Just reg maint. and old changes every 3000k. Car is currently at 77k. I plan to drive for another 10 years or more.

  • My pathfinder - 2000 Nissan Pathfinder

    I really like the car - my advise to anyone who buys it is - use the internet pricing. Dont let the dealer get ya. I dont like the door size to the back seats. Inside its okay in the back - front seat is very comfortable. Resale seems to be more than fair.

  • Slow but wins the race - 2000 Nissan Pathfinder
    By -

    Bought new and have never done anything but routine maintenance. Tight handling and has used tires like a Mack truck. I finally relented and started to carry 26 lbs. of pressure in the tires and have 40,000 miles on my current set of Yokohama HT-S Geolanders. Have done some very hard four wheel drives with this vehicle and only broke one shock. She still takes us skiing all winter and never complains. Expect to still have this Pathfinder in 2020 just like my 1991 Nissan truck.

  • Good truck for the 1st 100K - 2000 Nissan Pathfinder
    By -

    Ive owned this truck since new. Very comfortable. Only complaint is the poor MPG (~15). In 105K miles, not one breakdown or problem. Ive only put tires, oil, gas, and a timing belt into the car. No breaks, exhaust - nothing! I did have trouble keeping the tires balanced (too big?) I always seem to have a shimmy on the highway.

  • Schmieds Review - 2000 Nissan Pathfinder
    By -

    I havent had any problems with this car. Its been great and fun. Lots of power...just be careful make a turn after it just started raining. Its engine is very powerful and you could lose control. Comfortable vehicle.
