Have had the 2013 Maxima SV with premium package for 3 months and Love it. Was coming out a 2002 Acura RL sedan & did a lot of research on imported 4 door sedans in the $35K - $45K range - Maxima SV won hands down against all competitors. Great ride, strong engine, CVT transmission with shift multiple options responsive handling, strong brakes, attractive body style very nice interior with Bose stereo. Local dealers were aggressive in their pricing too - all around I an quite happy with the Nissan Maxima SV Premium car - you won't be disappointed.

For 5k miles, we absolutely loved our 2013 Maxima SV Premium Tech Package till it left us stranded in the middle of no where. Apparently, the timing chain came off. We are waiting for the dealership to put in a brand new engine. The dealership we purchased it from was so kind to offer me 28K on a car I purchased 3 months ago for 35K.

From day one, I never even wanted this car. My dad and I spent months searching, and this seemed like the “best deal.” He covered most of the cost, so out of respect I agreed. Worst decision ever. The transmission is a nightmare. These CVTs are absolute garbage. Slipping, terrible acceleration, jerking, constant fear of failure. Add on the fact that the gas mileage is atrocious (I’m dropping $45 to fill up only to watch it drain in less than a week), and the constant nickel-and-dime repairs: wheel bearings, tie rods, you name it this thing eats money like food. I’ve owned other cars and I know maintenance is normal, but THIS is different. The Maxima feels like it’s built to fail. If you’re even thinking about buying one of these? Don’t. Run the other way. I wouldn’t wish this ownership experience on my worst enemy. Save yourself the headache and MONEY and look at Toyota, Lexus, Honda, literally anything else. Nissan is not worth it.
