#8171 of 8189 AC fan stopped working by franko76

One day the a/c and heater just stopped blowing air on my 2001 Nissan Pathfinder LE 4x4. When I am driving above 50 mph depending on what temperature I set it at, I can slightly feel some air (ie. if I have the temp at 60 I can feel cold air if I have the temp at 90 I can feel hot air). If the car isn't in motion there is no air what so ever coming out of the vents. I checked all the fuses and all the connections to see if maybe some wires were just bad and everything turned out fine. It doesn't seem to be an electrical issue because the digital dash is showing everything. I can lower and raise the temperature turn it on auto and econ etc... but nothing is coming out of the vents. My defrost is also not working. Any help would be so great. I just don't know what it could be.

I have the same exact truck, and had the same exact problem last year. In my case the fan motor needed to be replaced. The air you feel coming in at highway speeds is being vented in from outside the truck. Once you have completed the repair, please post here again as to what the exact problem was and cost to repair as it will potentially help other users, thanks!

Had the same exact thing happen in my 2001 SE 4x4. Fan just stopped working, and have to rely on the highway to get AC or Heat from the speed pushing it through. Confirmed, the motor is shot. If your under warranty They own it. If not, try junk yards but I haven't had much luck as this appears to be a part looked for often..do I smell another recall NISSAN

Any Canadian PF owners receive the letter from Nissan Canada Inc. regarding "corrosion that may cause strut tower housing damage" ?

I'm in new england and received the interim notice and was about ready to move West so took it in to have it checked out, mind you after it had been inspected for the move, and it's unrepairable..not too happy about any of this

I am in NY state, received the same notice, what are they going to do for you since they say it is unrepairable? I have 2 pathfinder 97 & 99. I am just curious if they are going to make it right with you somehow?

I had no steering problems or noises either, but I had a lot of front quarter panel rot, which is the problem..if that goes it puts tension on the front drivers strut..It was a problem...my brake lines were exposed too..if you don't have any rot on the quarter panel on drivers side, wait for their reply, otherwise, bring it in..it's a big dea

One would think they would make it right, but this has been a nightmare.. and they were/are not prepared. NO they did nothing right by me like Toyoto did for their customers..Not 1 dam thing. I can't tell you how much NISSAN will never be in my life again. From a family of Nissan and infinity owners, Never again. If you have front driver side quarter panel rot, it's a problem. You won't get a rental if #1. you don't have Full coverage on your current vehicles, and #2. You don't have a major credit card,for the rental.. as if they think your insurance would cover their vehicle on your policy under a RECALL, No, it doesn't, check with your insurance co. It's a recall, it's their problem. They left me for almost 2 months with nothing to drive, and I live alone .. Yep, they simply don't care, and I called everyone and their uncle. Gave me Kelly blue book, and their military discount, which differs depending on what you buy but it's 6k off a pathfinder.. No thanks, time to move on, SO tired of rot since the Datsun days because they cut corners..check out some of the new ones with the chop job out of factory with steel riveted plates,this is a big Old problem they knew about for a lot longer than recent. They don't care about their customers.. I was lucky, I bartered with another well know SUV Co and they gave me their military discount. Bye to Nissan, happy Now. I have a lot more to add, but I can't.
