The Nissan Pathfinder: Safety So Good, Even NJ Traffic Can’t Ruin It
​Between school runs, sports tournaments, and the dreaded last-minute Target trip that turns into a full-blown shopping spree, New Jersey families spend a lot of time in their vehicles. Safety is essential because NJ highways are their own kind of rollercoaster. Enter the Nissan Pathfinder, recently crowned Best Family SUV for Safety by Nielsen Editorial. Whether you’re weaving through Route 287 at rush hour, braving an icy Parkway drive, or dodging rogue shopping carts in a Paramus parking lot, the Pathfinder is looking out for you.
With Nissan Safety Shield® 360, the Pathfinder is like having a friend riding shotgun who’s constantly paying attention. Automatic Emergency Braking? Crucial for that guy who suddenly slams on his brakes in the left lane. Blind-Spot Monitoring? Perfect for when a merging car “forgets” turn signals exist. Rear Cross-Traffic Alert? Transformative for backing out in a packed Trader Joe’s lot.
The available ProPILOT Assist with Navi-Link automatically adjusts your speed and keeps you centered in your lane — so when traffic on the Parkway turns into a stop-and-go nightmare, at least your SUV won’t have a meltdown.
Just because it’s built for protection doesn’t mean it skimps on perks. With three roomy rows, a hands-free liftgate, and an available panoramic sunroof, it’s the perfect blend of tough, spacious, and surprisingly stylish.
Looking for an SUV that protects your crew and actually makes NJ driving less stressful? Visit our New Jersey Nissan dealership for a Nissan Pathfinder test drive. In this state, you need all the safety features you can get.
