Replaced the 2015 Pathfinder before the CVT failed. Picked up this new Frontier truck that's a better match up with the Datsun.

I have had 3 pathfinders over the years loved them. Went to buy a new one until I found out they have a CVT transmission. So I brought a Jeep Wrangler. Nice Z car

I had a Murano before the Pathfinder and quite liked the Murano CVT. I put up with the Pathfinder for 7 years and in the last year I could feel an occasional "hitch" in the transmission. I took it in a couple of times and always got the same answer... No trouble found. Nissan knew these trannies were probably not up to the task of the Pathfinder since they'd extended the warrantee out to 7 years or 80K miles whichever comes first. Since I hit the 7 years earlier this year I traded it for the truck which has a real 9 speed tranny. Nissan has gone to a 9 speed tranny for the Pathfinder for 2022.
