Known issues on the 2001 Pathfinder. Seven recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the steering column strut housing, which can crack and pull away from the inner hood ledge, causing grinding noises, increased steering effort, and possible loss of steering control. Four recalls cover aftermarket exterior lighting assemblies sold for use on this vehicle that lack required amber side reflectors, reducing visibility and increasing crash risk. Another covers the rear liftgate hinge struts, where improperly made brackets can bend at high temperatures and detach, causing the hatch to fall rapidly and strike someone. The final recall covers the fuel filler tube assembly, where insufficient coating can allow road salt corrosion to perforate the tube and lead to fuel leakage. Owners have filed 239 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From a steering column inspection to a liftgate strut replacement or a fuel filler tube check, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2001 Pathfinder.
