2015 Nissan Armada Platinum 4dr SUV (5.6L 8cyl 5A)
9 of 10 people found this review helpful
I replaced my 2006 pathfinder LE with 2015 Platinum Armada. Initially did not want to spend 20 years in a Nissan. Shopped the Infinity, BMW X5, Porsche, Benz, Expedition etc. I wanted a V8 and was going to spend $95,000 for what I wanted. The Armada was the last one I looked at and honestly hadn't even considered it till the end when I got in it. Loved it when I compared it to all the others as soon as I sat down. $47000 plus tax. No complaints at all so far. Melbourne Florida 12/15. I did get 19MPG on a drive to Tampa, but I do drive like an old woman.

2004 2008 2014 2015 2017 2018 and {4} 2020 Armadas. 2004-375k miles and the 2015 has 119k miles. the 2 old-timer mechanics on site explained to me the boss have always loved the Armadas. the mechanics initially laughed at him back in '03 when the first batch of Armadas arrived as his fleet vehicles. Later after almost 2 decades they understood why the boss chose them...their roomier, cheaper than competitor prices, huge towing capacity, and super reliable. the mechanics explained the Armadas were built like commercial use vehicles but were made for consumers. I can vouch about towing.....I tow boats and deliver 8500lb ones uphill freeway driving and i can still do it at 65mph all day long no problem. I asked about the bearings being greased prior to delivery and break wear...they both looked at me like i was stupid...ofcourse they grease the bearings boy they said...how would the wheels turn....brake wear with load use they replace every 50k miles, those that dont pull much around 75k miles but " Boy, they still got lots of meat on those pads but we just go ahead and change at this interval because the boss says so " i have been working here for 2 years and wash and wax these cars and most times i hook up the trailers for some delivery. I like those 2020 too but i prefer to buy my own personal Armada 2015 since i have seen with my own two eyes how reliable these beasts are. If they can handle the daily grind here at work, my 2015 armada that i am searching for will be no problem for my no load no towing just freeway driving and city grocery shopping daily driver will last forever. Hey im lucky i got not 1 but 2 old timers who have worked on them forever so i can always get some advice if i come across a maintenance issue i dont know about.

So I recently purchased a brand new 2015 nissan armada 2 months ago.. I owned a 2006 Armada for over 10years and absolutely loved my truck. But it was getting older and ive never had a vehicle go over 100k before. Since the 2016 model was going to have a totally different look and seemed to be smaller on the inside l decided after going over 100k to get a new one while I could afford to. Within a few days there was the worst smell coming from the a/c. A new car that literally smelled like dirty socks. I did some research decided to try lysol and let the fan blow on high to try to dry it out but it didnt work. I took it back to the dealer who claimed nothing wrong with the a/c its just when the temps reach over a 100 degrees its hard on the a/c. They put in a freshener that lasted a couple of days, but the smell came back, but wasnt as bad as before so I figured Im taking a road trip hopefully that will help dry out the system. But here I am 2 months into it and my mom literally gagged when the air came on the other day the smell was so bad. After talking to my sister in law who also owns a 2015 nissan rogue explained she has been having the same issue so it sounds like nissan did a bad job with the a/c unit all together. Everyone tells me your new car should not be smelling like this and of course I totally agree!!!!, I will be contacting the dealer again to see about getting something done. I also am not pleased at all with the interior. Not sure what type of material it is but its similar to suede and is already showing signs of wear on it. I thought I should invest in seat covers but the dealer said they dont sale them do to the airbags in the seats. The sales guys said should be covered in the warranty should they wear badly within 3years(we’ll see how that goes, but i dont plan on keeping it that long). My previous Armada’s had the bose system as well, this one is supposed to but it never sounds quite as clear and i miss the 6 disc option I had previously. The steering wheel will adjust up but will not lock in place which is a dissapointment if you are on the heavier side or over 6 feet tall in my opinion. The dash as well as the rest of the interior is also made of a different softer material that is very dull looking and seems to attract lent so it always looks dirty to me. Overall for this to be a newer model i feel they did a very poor job and they should have left it alone because there so called improvements ARE NOT.

I purchased this Armada after having two Pathfinders that I loved but needed more room. It was used with 20,000 miles. I now have 65,000 miles and have not had one problem. I think some of these other reviews are BS as I just had original breaks checked and they are still great. I will probably get 100,000 miles on original pads. I paid $32,000 for this vehicle which was 10s of thousands less that a similar Toyota or Ford Chevy etc. New. I have not had one problem since I have had it does absolutely everything we have asked it to do. Stereo with satellite radio is amazing as is blue tooth. Put this on your shopping list and you won't regret it. It's a huge value for price and performance!

An Armada and a 6,500 lb boat

I wanted a Toyota Land Cruiser. But it was $25,000. more than the comparable Armada. The first thing that I noticed is that it is spacious and will hold 7 adults. The second thing I like is the back-up camera. When I drove it I noticed the power. I does pull our 6,500 lb boat. Part of the reason that I wanted this vehicle is that it is rated to pull even more weight than that. It rides very smoothly. It is very well sound proofed. The suspension is very compliant. I'm very happy with the Bose radio, CD, Blue Tooth system. It has 4 drive modes, 2 wheel rear wheel drive, all wheel drive, 4 wheel high, and 4 wheel low. I have used all wheel drive for 300 miles at the cost of 2 mpg. We bought the car in November 2016. Someone ran into this Armada and totaled it. We bought a new 2019 Armada because we liked the 2016 so much.
