2019 Nissan Pathfinder 2.5L Petrol · AD68 MXY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful retest after a recent failure. While the maintenance trend appears stable overall, the failure on 20 May 2026 reveals a lapse in preventative maintenance regarding the braking system. The tester flagged the rear brake pads as being at 1.1mm, falling below the legal 1.5mm limit. The fact that the vehicle passed the very next day indicates the owner addressed the defect immediately to bring the car back up to standard. The mileage pattern is consistent with a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. Between the May 2025 test at 44,584 miles and the May 2026 test at 49,322 miles, the Pathfinder covered 4,738 miles. This lower annual usage suggests light commuting, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension but can sometimes lead to component corrosion if the vehicle sits for extended periods. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system to ensure the replacement pads were fitted correctly and that the calipers are not sticking or binding. Given the thinness of the pads, checking the brake discs for scoring or uneven wear is advisable. The buyer should also inspect the suspension bushes and underbody chassis for signs of surface rust, as these are common areas of concern for a vehicle of this age despite relatively low mileage.
