Buying a used 2019 Nissan Pathfinder? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2019 Nissan Pathfinder has 2 recalls in this group: a brake fluid leak that may cause fire, with a park-outside instruction, and a backup camera image issue. Recall completion records should distinguish these two repairs. NHTSA lists 75 owner complaints, which are unverified reports, including 20 unknown or other, 15 engine, 13 service brakes, and 10 forward collision avoidance reports. The complaint record also lists 4 crashes, 1 fire, and 2 injuries without establishing their causes.
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.
- Verify brake-fluid recall completion and applicable park-outside guidance.
- Check backup camera operation and repair documentation.
- Ask about engine issues, braking concerns, and collision-avoidance warnings.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Nissan dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
