Common problems and easy repairs on a 2014 Pathfinder

The 2014 Nissan Pathfinder SL Hybrid is a moderately easy car to maintain, and a good choice for the experienced car owner. To access the headlight, you only have to reach behind the housing to reach the bulb. Connecting the Bluetooth is easy to do, as there are clear steps to follow in the electronic menu. Checking the brake fluid level is no problem, as the fluid reservoir is very visible in the engine bay. This will allow you to check and replenish the fluid level on a regular basis.

Some things are more of a problem on the 2014 Nissan Pathfinder SL Hybrid. To replace the fog light more reliably, you will have to reach through the wheel well lining. This will require a few tools, and for you to peel back a lining can grow tight to the vehicle over time. You will have to lower the spare tire from under the vehicle in order to access. This can be a problem, as the lowering mechanism can grow rusted to the vehicle over time. You will have to completely remove the tail light housing in order to access and replace some of the tail lights. While not too difficult, it will require a few tools you may not have readily available for a repair.
