2015 Nissan Pathfinder Owner’s Manual — Questions and Answers

Where is the label that lists the Pathfinder’s gross vehicle weight rating?

On the Pathfinder, the certification label showing gross vehicle weight rating and gross axle weight ratings is mounted on the center pillar, between the front and rear doors on the driver’s side. Owner’s Manual, p. 474

When should I install cross bars before loading cargo on my Pathfinder’s roof?

Cross bars must go on before any cargo touches the roof of your Pathfinder. Spread luggage evenly across them, keep the total under 150 lb (68 kg), and never rest a load directly on the roof side rails themselves. Owner’s Manual, p. 138

Where would I see the label marking E-15 ethanol fuel at gas pumps for my 2015 Nissan Pathfinder?

That label isn’t on the vehicle itself but on the fuel dispensing pump. Government rules require a small, square, orange and black sticker showing either the common ethanol abbreviation or the blend percentage, warning that a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder shouldn’t use E-15. Owner’s Manual, p. 470

What’s the difference between normal and severe oil change intervals?

Under typical use you can follow the standard oil and filter change interval, but certain driving patterns call for more frequent servicing. These include repeated short trips in cold weather, dusty environments, extended idling, trailer towing, and stop-and-go commuting. Any of these situations wears oil out faster, so the schedule should be shortened compared with normal, steady highway-style driving to keep the engine protected. Owner’s Manual, p. 472

How far should I move my 2015 Nissan Pathfinder if Easy Fill Tire Alert isn’t working?

For a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder, if TPMS interference stops the Easy Fill Tire Alert from working, move the vehicle about 3 ft (1 m) backward or forward and try again before resorting to a manual tire pressure gauge. Owner’s Manual, p. 357

Can I put E-85 fuel in a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder?

A 2015 Nissan Pathfinder should never be fueled with E-15 or E-85 gasoline. Using either blend can damage the fuel system and trigger the Malfunction Indicator Light. Stick to the fuel grade specified in the Fuel Recommendation section of the manual to avoid engine problems and warranty issues. Owner’s Manual, p. 182

How do I know if remote start actually started my Pathfinder’s engine?

When you press and hold the remote start button, the turn signal lights flash and the tail lamps turn on. Once the engine actually starts, the parking lights turn on and stay on, the doors lock, and the climate control system may activate automatically. Owner’s Manual, p. 173

What does it mean when a closing window suddenly reverses on its own?

It means the auto-reverse safety function has triggered, sensing an impact or load similar to something caught in the glass while it closes automatically. The window instantly lowers again for safety, though environment or driving conditions can sometimes cause it to trigger without an actual obstruction present. Owner’s Manual, p. 142

How does using SAE 5W-30 oil compare to the recommended SAE 0W-20 in a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder?

Nissan’s primary recommendation for the VQ35DE engine is Genuine Nissan Ester Oil or an equivalent with the API Certification Mark, viscosity SAE 0W-20. As an alternative, SAE 5W-30 conventional petroleum-based oil can be used instead, and it still meets every specification needed to keep the New Vehicle Limited Warranty valid, so either grade is acceptable for a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder. Owner’s Manual, p. 467

What happens if I don’t drive my Pathfinder above 16 mph after fixing a low tire?

If you drive your Pathfinder slower than 16 MPH (25 km/h) after adding air, the low tire pressure warning light stays on. The light won’t reset automatically once pressure is corrected—TPMS needs to be reactivated by driving above that speed for it to turn off. Owner’s Manual, p. 103

How can I tell if my windshield is actually clean after washing it on my 2015 Nissan Pathfinder?

Your 2015 Nissan Pathfinder’s windshield is properly clean when water beads do not form after rinsing with clear water following a wash with washer solution or mild detergent. If beads still appear, more cleaning is needed before the surface counts as clean. Owner’s Manual, p. 444

What’s the maximum combined weight allowed for using the LATCH lower anchors in a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder?

The 2015 Nissan Pathfinder’s lower anchors are rated for a combined child and child restraint weight up to 65 lbs (29.5 kg). Once that total is exceeded, you must switch to securing the child restraint with the vehicle’s seat belt instead of the LATCH lower anchors, following the restraint manufacturer’s installation instructions. Owner’s Manual, p. 59
