1999 Nissan Pathfinder 6 cyl Wheel Drive Type unknown Manual 139800 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
i bought a 1999 nissan pathfinder, i notice some play in the steering, so i took the truck to Midas where they showed me some frame damage on the driver side(near the steering colum).....i was told that the whole frame on the driver side has to be replaced....also that who ever tried to fix the frame by welding it was wrong! Is that true?

i'm buying the pathfinder for $5000.00 .........what is it worth? (ball park figure)

Did you buy it on a salvage title? If it has frame damage like that, it was probably totaled at one point. My advice? Get money back!
