Things to consider when insuring one
5-star overall crash rating
NHTSA’s top crash rating. Crash protection affects injury claims, which make up a large share of what auto insurance pays out.
Driver-assist sensors come standard
They can help avoid crashes, but a windshield or bumper repair often needs the cameras and radar recalibrated, which costs more. Check what your comprehensive and collision deductibles would mean for a glass claim.
Most owner complaints are about the power train
4 of 15 complaints to NHTSA mention it. Worth a look in a pre-purchase inspection.
Recalls
NHTSA has no recalls on record for the 2026 Nissan Pathfinder. A specific car can still have work outstanding from its seller, so check its VIN before you buy.
