Maxima's punch

2018 Nissan Maxima 3.5 SL 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl CVT)

The Maxima's interior is on par with a luxury car. Sleek design details like the dash and interior lighting are what you would find on a BMW. Charging ports in the backseat are "a game changer" according to my teenage son. The car handles well just as expected from a Maxima. Very happy with this car, and I consider car shopping a brutal task.

We bought a 2016 Maxima sr, new. We loved this car until the problems just kept mounting. It has been in the shop numerous times (oil leak) took 3 days to find and fix. At least four factory recalls, which were fixed. The latest a bracket holding the muffler up broke, $200 fix. Drove it home the emission light came on. Went back to the dealer $875.00 to replace an oxygen sensor but that wasn't the only problem. A transmission code pops up. Needs a new transmission the CVT is slipping. That is at least covered by the drivetrain warranty. The car has 43k miles. Garaged, no dirt roads, very little city driving mainly hwy, no abuse. I have had 2 Maxima's, 2 Altima's. and a 350z. Done with Nissan.

I did a lot of research on quiet sedans.The Maxima was the quietest of all, which was my primary goal. I actually used a free DB meter to compare road noise and it was better than much higher end brands I test drove. I ended up with the SL which has 18 inch tires as apposed to the Platinum with 19 inch. The reason being a smoother ride with the 18 inch tires. Very quiet driving around town, and mostly quiet on the highway, with the exception of roads being repaved, or roads with more grating to keep from sliding. Carpay is excellent. It's a solid well engineered car with lots of bells and whistles for the price. Overall I love the handling, drive, and comfort of this Nissan. I've taken a few long road trips so far and really enjoyed the ride.

The Battery takes up most of the trunk if you have more than two large suitcases the back seat is your only option.
