I have a 2014 Nissan Pathfinder with 95,000 miles now that I’m reaching the 100k mark what service should I give to this Car to make sure it can last another 100k or you recommend I should run away and sell it and get a Toyota.
You should have a 100k mile service package as recommended by the manufacturer in your owners manual. It will detail out what is recommended. I would do everything they say if you plan on keeping it.
Suggested items:
Clean the MAF sensor and Throttle Body. (Fast, cheap DIY)
Check on the condition of the Valve Cover Gasket. Replace if necessary (DIY job, if your handy)
Check and/or replace spark plugs. (DIY)
Transmission fluid drain and fill (Do NOT flush). Replace the thermostat with an OEM model.
Coolant flush or drain and fill. (DIY)
Brake fluid flush and fill/Bleed Brakes
Replace the PCV
Check and/or replace radiator cap and gas cap (DIY)
Check the radiator for small cracks, etc.
Check and or replace cabin air filter (DIY)
If the power steering is hydraulic and not electronic, refresh the fluids
Check the condition brake pads and rotors
Test the alternator (DIY)

That's a good starter list.

Look, if the vehicle does what you want it to, and you keep it maintained, it may last for years. Even the best engineered and manufactured vehicle will have a shorter and more expensive life if not well maintained.
So, if it ain't broke, and it serves you well, maintain it, until it hits the point of NEFR (Not Economically Feasible to Repair).
