Hi, I have a 2003 Pathfinder. It runs great except sometimes when I am getting up to speed on the highway. Occasionally, it will refuse to go into its final gear. There have been times I have hit almost 80 MPH. I then have to back off the gas to get the gear to change. I brought it into the dealer today. The tech told me that it was that I am hitting the gas too hard and stressing the transmission. The fact is that I do have a slight leadfoot, but I have also been driving cars for 20 or so years and never experienced this. He claims that this is something that it characteristic of the Pathfinder. My questions are
- Has anyone else experienced this with their Pathfinder? 2. Is that a true fact in regards to this model? 3. Is there anything I can do to remedy this? Thank you for you response. -Lon
