What owners wrote
The vehicle had been parked for 30 seconds after a 8 mile drive and the engine compartment caugth on fire. Please describe details.
At my 60k service the mechanic diagnosed a faulty exhaust manifold and replaced it. Fortunately, this was covered by my extended warranty. I've come to realize that is was a common problem with nissan pathfinders although no recalls have been instituted. I'm concerned that this will reoccur again as my vehicle approached 100k.
