Bought new in 2000, still driving it in 2012..no issues, very reliable

I bought this car new in June of 2000. I owned a 1998 Qx4 which lacked power so the added 70 horsepower was a much needed improvement. I expected to keep it 10 years, but it at 12 years (155k miles ) and it hasnt given me a reason to get rid of it. I've kept the scheduled maintenance up on it, and the only thing I've had to do outside of that, was replace items that would normally need replacing, like brakes, shocks, etc. I got my money's worth on it. Pros: Very reliable. Does good with towing, towed 4 sportsbikes from AZ to Cali and up and down hills didnt notice any drag. Aged well for the most part, still quiet, still comfortable, nothing leaking. Cons: Not the fastest SUV out there

Great Value on a Solid Vehicle

2001 INFINITI QX4 4WD 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl 4A)

I picked up my QX4 in 2016 as a daily driver, a vehicle to park outside in all kinds of weather and not worry too much about its cosmetics. It has proven to be reliable after I had a few issues related to age and mileage (181,000 when I bought it) addressed. These are great vehicles—upscale materials, decent driving dynamics, and Nissan's bulletproof 3.5L V6—that are available nowadays for very little money. The most serious issue on the QX4 is rust around the front strut towers (the front suspension can collapse if it isn't addressed), and although Infiniti will repair the problem under recall, it's a good idea to see whether the one that you're considering has a strut-tower rust problem before buying it. The QX4 handles well, and the ride is good unless the pavement becomes uneven, and then it rides, well, like the truck that it is. Don't expect it to ride like a newer unibody crossover in all situations. Acceleration is decent, but the engine note makes the vehicle sound as if it is working hard to move. The brakes are also decent but are not exceptional: it took me a few months to grow accustomed to the longer stopping distances required of a vehicle with rear drum brakes. If the cheapish front disc/rear drum brake setup is the one cost-saving measure that I’ve noticed, then Infiniti also deserves kudos for spending money on the interior. The leather on the seats is thick and high quality, the dash is made of solid material rather than clunky plastic, and the real wood trim is plentiful and gorgeous. I also own a 2006 Infiniti FX45, which has a flashier interior that is also pleasant, but the materials in the QX4’s interior are simply more expensive and better. Repair costs are reasonable since the QX4 is essentially a Nissan Pathfinder underneath the trimmings. I consider my QX4 one of the nicest and best vehicle purchases that I've ever made. I wanted a vehicle that could work, be fun to drive, and carry me in comfort; it has delivered on all counts. A Final Update and Tribute A 2014 Ford F-150 pulled out directly in from of me in my QX4. I think that I had less than a second to react and t boned him in the driver’s side at about 40 mph. The airbags deployed, but the passenger compartment remained intact and my passenger and I walked away uninjured. (The driver of the F 150 also was not injured.) Both vehicles were totaled. I fear that my final comments on the QX4 have to be center on praise for its strength and safety.

2001 QX4 in Canada - still going strong 2013

170,000 kms and the only repairs have been engine coils at 150,000 ($900.) emissions sensor (2 @ $150 each) and air mass sensor ($300). The machine is excellent to drive in all conditions. The 4x4 system works very competently in snow and mud. The vehicle is well appointed, powerful, quiet and smooth. Extremely reliable. Poor fuel economy & premium fuel Cramped back seat (legroom) Poor rust resistance ***** Anyone considering one MUST insist a shop remove the plastic covers over (esp. rear) wheels. EASY. A perfect looking vehicle can have BAD rust issues behind these Must spray inner front fenders and under front of hood. These areas rust from behind & will ruin vehicle

Pros: The reliability of Infiniti. (engine/transmission never let you down) The classic design. (never get tired of the look) The quiet city cruiser. (car-like luxury-smoothness) The able muscle on demand. (whenever necessary @240hp) The attractive interior. (quality leather all around) The choice engineering. (switchable Auto-2wd-4H-4L system) The convenient features. (4 seat heaters/2 auto seat adjustment) Cons: The gas guzzler. (15-17mpg) The tiny legroom in the back. (not easy to get in/out as well) The rust issues underneath/fender areas. (questionable building quality?) I live in a rural area where it's 60%highway and 40% off-road driving.

I am a very particular buyer and I have to say my QX4 has exceeded all my expectations! I cannot say enough about this vehicle! Start with the engine, 240hp will move; no traffic conditions will deter you from going where you want to go! The 4 wheel drive system is excellent as well, just a click of the dial and you are good to go. It handled flawlessly last winter in a heavy snowstorm, while other cars on the road were crawling along at 25mph, I was instantly up to 40mph and felt like I was on dry pavement. Very confidence inspiring! The Infiniti gets looks everywhere I go and there's not a lot of these on the road which makes it even more unique! I love this SUV! Buy one, you'll thank me!

Right side unibody rusted out - the engine and front differential are connected to the frame which cannot effectively be repaired. Extreme safety hazard. If the unibody could be repaired, it would be temporary and pose a safety hazard for the next buyer and potential liability for the seller. Infiniti refuses to assume responsibility. Infiniti has repaired the driver's side strut tower housing, but does not acknowledge sever unibody rust. Dealer indicates other owners have same problem.

Before purchasing my QX4, I test drove every SUV in that class. The QX4 is more powerful, but at the same time super luxury. You feel the class as soon as you step into one. The wood trim, analog clock and heated front seats are just a few items that make the QX4 a comfortable ride. The 4WD is great in the snow; I was able to outmaneuver a friend of mines H2 Hummer. Have had it for over 2 years now and can’t image life without it.

For the price, you can't beat this SUV. If you're looking for a practical on-road SUV that drives like a car, look no further. Auto-4wd makes it useful at city driving like AWD, but also has the benefits of 4wd off- roading.

Purchased it used with 95K miles and it feels almost like new. Very nice inside and out. Drives great on smooth roads but is bumpy and truck like on bad sections of the freeway. I will try bringing the tire pressures down to 26lbs as recommended to see if that makes a difference. Otherwise the Q is excellent all around!

This SUV has it all. I've owned a Jeep Grand Cherokees (pkease avoid this car), Chevy Blazer and a Ford Explorer and the QX4 blows them away. After dealing with the big three's horrible build quality, service and reliability I made the switch and am glad I did. The QX$ has excellent quality and performance.

This is my second Infiniti vehicle and they have both proven to be the very nicest vehicles I have ever driven, and owned. I will continue to buy Infinitis as long as they produce vehicles! This SUV is not only beautiful, strong, commanding and luxurious- it is capable! The strong engine gets you where you need to be with out batting an eye. It has power to spare, especially off-road!! It was, by far, one of the best 4X4 vehicles I have ever come across! BUY THIS SUV!!!!

The QX4 has been very reliable for me, but it's not my everyday drive vehicle. Ride is real rough in the back and the cabin is a bit small, but at the time that i purchased it, there were not a lot of options in mid-sized SUVs. For a vehicle that mostly sits in a garage, around 6 yrs old it has had a lot of rust issues, mainly behind the fender flares and the running board. Infiniti would not do anything for me and wanted $1100.00 for new running boards. So I had a body shop redo the metal for the running boards for around $200.00 each. I do think I will by infiniti again, because they did not stand behind the rust guarantee. A $40,000.00 vehicle should not have rust that much so soon.

Electrical problems with our Q

We thought this was one of the best values on the road as we previously had good experiences with Nissan Pathfinders. Unfortunately, electrical problems have ruined an otherwise good ownership experience with our QX4. We should have seen the early warning signs. Had to replace the entire radio/CD player at 25,000 miles (under warranty), have replaced batteries once a year for a non start - completely dead issue - something creating a slow draw from the car when it sits parked. The longer it is parked, the more chance it won't start. Now that we're out of the warranty, CD player is again not working and the car needs to be jumped once a week. Take it to the dealer and no problems can be found.

Outstanding vehicle. I'm SO glad I chose Infiniti. This is my first SUV, my other car is a Jaguar XK8, and I have very high standards, so I was apt to judge the QX4 rather harshly. But I LOVE this vehicle. It's GREAT to drive - stable, comfortable, neither too big nor too small. Plenty of features, nearly sumptuous interior, yet still a true off-road vehicle as well. It's hard to believe, but I appreciate, and enjoy, my QX4 almost as much as my beautiful Jag.

I bought this vehicle used with 60,000 miles on it about 5 years ago. It drove great at first (even though the check engine light mysteriously came on, then off). Now that it's getting close to 100k mi, it needs some work (transmission solenoid kit & mass airlow meter). Also, the 6 disc cd changer has had problems since the day I bought it. Overall, it has been a very dependable SUV and handles great in bad weather.

Bought it used (3 years old) and only had 30K miles (still on factory warranty). I've had it 5 months and couldn't be happier with the purchase. Outperforms (by leaps and bounds) brand new suv's on the market today in the same price range this car goes for used now; $25K-ish. Fast, handles great for a 4000+ pound SUV, the ride quality is excellent, luxurious, comfortable, a K&N freeflow intake and removal of rear muffler really make it sound like a 350Z! Can't beat the Nissan build quality. Would highly recommend this used vehicle for those looking at new or slightly used midsize SUV's.

I decided to purchase a 2001 QX4 based on three factors: 1. I wanted a SUV w/4WD, 2. It's distintive and elegant, and you won't see one every fifth vehicle you pass on the road, and 3. Postive eviews, both professional and consumer. As advertised, the QX4 is everything others have noted, both good and not so good. The not so good - extremely disappointing gas mileage, back seat is tight, the Bose stereo system is good but not great and the steering wheel audio controls are awkward and limited in function. Overall, I would absolutely recommend the QX4!

When I purchased the 2001 QX4, there were not many car based SUVs - QX4 is a truck based rear wheel drive vehicle. 4WD was an option. The differential & drive shaft needed for rear wheel drive adds weight - for that reason gas consumption is a bit higher compared to contemporary non-SUVs. 2001+ models have the killer look - personally, I prefer it over the X5s and of course RX300 and M-Class. The front bezel and the wide three-spoke aluminum wheels (for 4WD trim) are both unique. The 4WD trim came with adequate and stylist standard features - Xenon HID head lamp, sun/moon roof, 6CD Bose, electro-fluorescent dash, everything-power, leather, simulated wood-trim ...

I had been test driving mostly Pathfinder LE's & 4Runner Limited's. This infinity blows both away. More HP than the 4Runner & far more luxury than the Pathfinder. Mine doesn't have 4wd or navigation, so it was priced barely more than the Pathfinder and was actually less than the 4Runner. Tough, yet refined and stylish. This is a car I love having in the driveway!

Although this SUV appeals to my senses it has become a disappointment from an owners view. I am a small (5'4") female but find this suv cramped both front and back. Driver's seat is small and uncomfortable on long drives. Back seat has no head room for taller people. Gas mileage is poor (wish they had not made it a 4wd I have yet to use it). Having mechanical problems 1120 miles. "Check engine soon" light comes on and auto will run like choke is stuck . Later it will correct itself until another time. I expected to get 200,000+ from an Infiniti with routine maintenance without any problems. Needs true engine reliability. Expected more from an Infiniti.

This SUV has been (and still is) a very comfortable and reliable vehicle. We have not had any mechanical failures to date (we have 40K miles on it). It is a very comfortable ride whether you are on a short city trip or on vacation. The only improvement that we feel Infiniti/Nissan needs to improve upon would be the GAS MILEAGE. We average 14 in the city and 17 on the highway.

Fun little rig to drive. The MPG is a tad low but the pep somewhat compensates for it. I bought it with 90K on it and for the most part it is in new condition. My biggest complaint is with the Bose/Clarion 6 CD/Cassette stereo. I had the car 4 months and got what is known as the dreaded err 2 message on the CD screen. With a bit of investigation I found this is a very common problem. This problem is peculiar to the 2001 model. There is a plastic gear in the CD changer that strips out. I have read of dealer quotes to $500 to fix this.

A Truly Capable Luxo Sport Ute

As it is based off of the Nissan Pathfinder, 4-Wheeler magazine's 4- wheeler of the year, the QX4 loves to be off road. The QX4 is a great choice if you want a truly capable premium sport utility. It includes a 4-low transmission setting, limited slip differential, uniframe construction and 5000 lb. towing capacity. Consumer Reports named this the most reliable vehicle of all cars trucks and SUVs. If you want a true sport utility with the amenities of a luxury brand this is a good choice. If you want a car with big tires see your Lexus dealer.

I had so many problems with this car(s), I even had 2 of these, got rid of one and got another, same bunch of issues, Tranny has issues! only 75k on it. new trans, new alternator, new pullys, new rotors, strut, replaced turn signal stick, muffler pipes broke, brakes awful, radio replaced, windows are slow, IF you're gonna buy this, only get the 2003, maybe they worked out some of the issues. had to do a lemon law case on it. beware

It is very hard for a short person to get in and out of this vehicle. The running boards are useless, they are too high. The radio display is extremely hard to see and impossible to read when driving. The rear wheel wells are in the way of the door opening. The gas mileage needs much improvement. The "tilting" steering wheel hardly tilts. The headlights have very little difference between high beams and low beams.

Madame Q

The Q is a pretty comfortable vehicle that's perfect for cruising. It's an excellently capable vehicle and supremely comfortable. It doesn't like to be pushed, however. Corners bring out lots of body roll and the vehicle just generally don't like being forced to move at anything other than a normal pace. It's almost as if the car gets offended at your attempts to make it hurry- the engine roars, the body leans & bobs, the car just generally acts mulish. An X5 this car is not, but that said, for what it is, it's extremely comfortable and capable.

Bought this after wanting one for years, previously avoided due to gas mileage. These are great SUV's and worth the extra gas. Comfortable, reliable, gorgeous looking abd versatile. INFINIT MUST BRING THESE BACK. I hear nothing but good about them

I've had my QX4 for 3 years and have never had a major problem. The driver power seat motor burnt out this year, but was under warranty. It drives smoother and quieter than my friends 2000 explorer and a much nicer ride than the toyota's I had test driven.

Initially rode like a luxury vehicle should but as the miles accumulated, it is similar in ride to the Pathfinder, more like a truck. Has a similar shimmy when braking and on the highway that was a problem with my previous Pathfinder.
