  From "Nearly Flawless" to "Major Flakes" - 2004 Nissan Pathfinder
  By Mike234 - August 1 - 5:00 am

  My first review was published at 2 yrs, 23K miles titled "Nearly Flawless". 3 years and almost 30K miles later the drivetrain performance still is. However this vehicle has developed a Major paint problem - the paint is flaking off the top of the lift gate and starting on the roof. I lose about 4 sq inches every time I wash! Nothing environmental or damaged and I am vigilant with maintenance. Just defective paint as far as I can tell. Nissans response was basically "Sorry, its out of warranty". Unfortunate, because its an otherwise fantastic vehicle. I was a big fan and now theyve lost a customer.

  Fair vehicle, could be better - 2004 Nissan Pathfinder
  By Chris Kent - June 7 - 8:06 am

  I always loved the design on the Pathfinder, and this vehicle is no exception. Rides smooth, good ergonomically inside. We have the LE Platinum Addition so it has almost every option you could ever want.

  My Second Pathfinder - 2004 Nissan Pathfinder
  By HappyWithNissan - March 25 - 4:33 am

  When the El Nino storms washed away the dirt road to our home, we used our first Pathfinder to escape to safety along a steep horse trail -- since then, weve been hooked. Now on our second Pathfinder (we traded in the first one when it was 7 years old so that we could have a shiny new one for our babies), were still very happy owners. We know that if a mountain trip or weather requires it, our Pathfinder can find a way to get us where were going. And it drives well in the city as well. The ABS kicks in when needed, the steering handles curvy roads very well, and the seats are comfortable even for long drives. Although mileage could be better, we get a decent 16 city, 20 highway.

  04 Nissan Pathfinder - 2004 Nissan Pathfinder

  Overall, its a well built vehicle. Very good ride quality and fun to drive. Its not a true 4x4 so its still a little squirrely on ice or slush.
