I purchased my 1998 infiniti qx4 new replacing my 1993 pathfinder. The qx4 is light years nicer than the pathfinder! Qx4 is the most reliable, comfortable and trouble free vehicle ever! Bose stereo rocks! Scheduled maintenance and a small repair here and there in the 167,000 miles I drove it! Michelin xlt 100,000 mi. All weather SUV tires are awesome on qx4! So disappointed infiniti discontinued it! Just traded for a BMW x5 -- it was time -- although qx4 is still running beautifully and everything works perfectly! Amazing in all aspects! If you adhere to regular service schedule -- this is the best car ever! Love the 2wd/awd/4wd option - - never got stuck or slid on bad roads!

Bought it used in 1998 with 40K miles. It is 2008 and it has 191,000 miles. I drive about 19K miles per year and it has been a great vehicle with the sunroof, Bose stereo and seat warmers. I started having problems about 3 years ago and rebuilt the transmission $2,500. I'm now looking at rebuilding again another $2500. The first transmission should have held up and now it is threatening to leave me stranded so I'm selling prior to keeping it with the high miles. Other problems included a bizzare rear-end problem that the dealer couldn't fix. Firestone finally fixed that, but the vehicle felt like it would roll or shake after an 18 wheeler prior to the fix. Perfect for a driver of less miles.

We purchased the car new and it's only been the repair shop once (besides oil changes and brake pads) and we didn't have to take it in. The Battery died and they came to the house and replaced it. This was when the car was six! Weve owned Mercedes, BMWs, AUDIs before and during the time weve owned this car but none have been as dependable. Its eerily reliable! Only complaints are the Bose stereo isnt of German quality and its not powerful like a German auto (you can tell when you are merging into busy freeways).
Most reliable SUV ever

Over 120,000 miles and not a single repair required. ZERO DOLLARS SPENT on repairs. I have changed my oil every 3,000-5,000 miles and the motor hums like it did the day I bought it. It's now 2007 and the body is looking dated compared to newer cars like the FX and Murano, but this is still a solid car. We have had several snow and ice storms and the 4-wheel drive makes me feel very secure when the wife/kids areout driving. While others were stuck inside, we were out enjoying the day.

I Love this vehicle! It is Luxurious, and reliable. I feel very safe driving it. Classy and dependable. I have towed my 2000 pound Tent Trailer with no problems in the mountains, etc. You just have to take it easy and allow the vehicle to go about 50 mph up steep roads, but that is no big deal to me!

Ours has about 90,000 miles on it and we haven't really had any problems with it. The interior is luxurious, the sound system is top-notch, and it handles great off-road. The auto-4wd feature works fantastic in icy conditions. The engine is WAY underpowered, growly, and noisy, totally contradictory to what a luxury vehicle should be, however. The interior is cramped for my 6'3" frame, but my 5'1" wife loves it.

I recently bought this car used so i am the second owner. When i bought it , it was at 213,000 miles now I have it to 223,000 miles. Even though its a 98 and it is now 2016 it runs like brand new! I haven't had to repair anything major yet! Which i am pretty happy about. This car is perfect for the snow! The only con is that it's not gas efficiant, but with low gas prices now a days it's not so bad. 10/10 would mosf defiantly recommend to anyone in need of an amzing SUV!

The best suv I have ever driven

This suv rocks! From the first day I bought it till now I have had no problems. Being in the field of fixing and driving cars daily this is by far the best suv I have driven. Yes the engine could have been more powerful, but the comfort and reliability of this vehicle outweighs this factor. The 4 wheel drive system is the best and most reliable it compares with Land Rover which is considered the best in 4 wheel drive system. If you want to be safe and and never get stuck this is the car for you.
Reliable, Reliable, Reliable

It's an Infiniti. 'nuff said. Runs like a top, never a problem, love the service loaners. I've owned 3 over the past 10 years and have yet to have any problem with any of the 3. G20, I30, now QX4. Is the Infiniti logo worth the $$? It is to me. The loaner car for oil changes, and overall service experience make owning the car EASY. Greatest look? Greatest ride? Greatest interior? No, no and no. But for the person looking for a dependable, smart SUV that is easy to own and doesn't take up your time, this is it.

Have enjoyed vehicle tremendously. Am a petite female but have felt comfortable handling this particular SUV (not true of others tested). Purchased it as a preowned vehicle. Has required no major mechanical work and has been extremely reliable and luxurious.

QX4 better than Pathfinder

I would say that the QX4 is a leap ahead of the N. Pathfinder. Its interior and body molding were superb. I do have a problem with the Horrible gas mileage and stiff steering. While I owned this vehicle I had to get the emmissions corrected twice and both front struts had to be replaced. Maintenance on this vehicle is expensive. If I had to do it over again I would've bought a Denali instead, or maybe a used Jag XJ6. One last thing if you like putting up hills at five m/h then this is the car for you.
Outstanding SUV

Without question, this is a top quality vehicle. The ride, appearance, fit and finish are all above what you would expect when changing from one of the domestics. This is the closest I have come to carefree driving.
