Pretty Good For Five Years

I’ve had My Maxima for 5 years and 100,000 miles. Overall it has been an excellent Value. I’ve replace the timing chain, and the brakes twice, and both struts. At about 150,000 miles it has started to lose a lot of power, but still drives really nice. Smooth on the highway and awesome in the snow. I’ve plowed this baby at 40MPH though 6 inches of unplowed roadway and never lost control. Definitely getting another Nissan. Had some problems with the electrical, no clock LED broke, Cruise Control doesn’t work, one power window doesn’t work, other than that this car has never stranded me, and always starts, runs excellent.

The car was completely load. Even with SOHC 160hp engine this car still rock even with 150,000 miles. The tricks is you have to do the maintenance on the vehicle. If you dont do anything else change the OIL EVERY 3000 miles and get the engine flushed @ least once a year to get rid of carbon deposit. Also get that timing belt changed between every 60 & 80,000 miles. The dealer recommends you use 87 octane, well, Ive tried 87 octane and the car just doesnt act right. Use SUNCO 93 OCTANE. Gas makes a difference. Even with 150,000 miles. I still can reach 130mph.

Other than routine maintenance not much work has had to be done. The only grips I have are about the door locks and the windows. I have one window that is not operational. My driver side door lock doesn't work and hasn't for quite some time. I also had a problem with the passenger and trunk locks but they were able to be saved. Thank god for the keyless entry. I also have had to fix the radio. From my understand, from the person that fixed it, the problem I had with my Bose radio was one that was happening with many of the radios. One last grip, every time I get my front brakes changed they are excessivly noisy which takes a while to go away.
Nice Car for the price

I've had the car a little while now. It has all reoccuring problems of the 3rd generation Max. Window regulators, antenna, and transmission slipage. Other than that its a great bang for the buck. The bose system is easily replaced w/better speakers and a CD player. If ya got music and a peppy car what else do you need. The thing tops out at 135mph with 140k miles. That's reliability... Especially w/me beatin it to hell in my college yrs. If you want a car that will take a lickin' and keep tickin', you got a taker
Can't beat it for the money

I have had the car for 5.5 years & 100,000 miles of it's life. At 171K the car doesn't leak a drop of fluid and runs like a scared cat. Normal window regulators, antenna & ABS sensor problems. No transmission problems. At 11 years old the car requires service, love and care. However, for the money, I doubt one can beat the performance & reliability. Unbelievable.
