Buying a used 2019 Nissan Pathfinder? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2019 carries the critical brake pump leak recall that can cause a fire; it comes with a park-outside advisory but no stop-driving instruction. A second, lower-severity recall covers a backup camera image that can stay off. Owners filed 75 complaints with NHTSA, including 4 crashes, 1 fire and 2 injuries. Beyond the unknown or other bucket (20), these unverified reports concentrate on engine (15), service brakes (13) and forward collision avoidance (10).
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Confirm the brake pump leak recall repair by VIN before taking delivery.
- Look for brake fluid residue under the hood and check pedal feel and fluid level.
- Test the backup camera, and ask for engine service records given the complaint pattern.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Nissan dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
