I have the 2023 Rockcreek edition, and at 60,500 KM and regular maintenance, no problems to report. Had to do one wheel alignment so far, and change the brakes both front and back at around 48,000 KM which was the only problem. They need bigger brakes. But I also pull twice a year a trailer for vacations which is almost 4000 lbs. so i guess it might be normal.

But overall I’m happy with it.

Cons: brakes need replacement early

Vehicle: Nissan Pathfinder

Mileage: 48000 km

Had to get all brake pads done 22k miles in. Brake still makes a sound when released could be bushings but not a major enough issue yet to replace.

Cons: brake pads replaced early, brake noise

Vehicle: Nissan Pathfinder
