2015 Nissan Pathfinder SUV SL 4dr SUV 4WD (3.5L 6cyl CVT)
3000 miles on '15 Pathfinder and already problems
 I recently decided to lease a new '15 Pathfinder SL w/ Premium Package despite reading many of the issues online with '13 and '14 MY transmission issues.  I choose the Pathfinder because I found it more comfortable than the Santa Fe, better fit and finish than the Explorer and I was able to get a better price/deal than the Highlander.  Sitting inside the Pathfinder it feels like a very luxurious vehicle.  Overall, I am worried about the build quality. Already have two issues at 3000 miles, one with the transmission having an ugly downshfit into when stopping.  Lots of bangs when driving.  Very worried about long term durability and safety.  Good thing I leased!!!**UPDATE** I've know owned the car for 28,000 miles, and over my opinion of this car is mediocre.  Its saving grace is that it is big, roomy, and super comfortable to drive, even as a daily driver.  But I feel that there are too many little things with this car to justify its $42k price tag.  I've had air bag issues, trim issues, the bluetooth is a disaster in the car, and the overall fit and finish just isn't holding up.  Plus, I found their exterior paint quality to be of low quality compared to other cars on the road.  I would never buy one of these used if you're thinking about it, and don't know if I'll ever buy another nissan again!
