I own this car - My approximate mileage is 100,500

Pros: "Safe, solid, reliable, roomy, useful"

Cons: "Fuel mileage"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"Original owner, garage kept vehicle in excellent mechanical condition. Was a little rough in the beginning. Purchased in 12-04 and immediately had brake problems. Infiniti completely replaced the front braking system and extended the warranty along with free maintenance for our troubles. The only other problem in nine years was the engine start relay, replaced for $3.00. Great vehicle, comfortable, solid, reliable, roomy, great all wheel drive. Not an economy vehicle but very tough and useful for towing."

"I love this truck. I realize the value, reliability, quality,comfort, etc everytime I drive it. I can't say that about many other things I have ever owned. The front riders resting arm fell off the first month I owned it. I had to add cooling refrigerant for the A/C at 200,000 and replaced a leaking automatic transmission fluid hose at 225,000 miles. I began asking the dealer after 100,000 miles when the alternator among other things would begin causing me trouble. I am still waiting. I average 15 mpg and 17 on a long trip. I'll never give up this truck."

Built like a tank, Awesome

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 58,000

Pros: "Fast. Superb drivetrain awesome!"

Cons: "interior quality, brakes"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 9

"Basic structure solid... Interior trim is another story plastic trim looks cheap and fit and finish mediocre at best. Knobs and panels come loose and is an annoyance. Brake issues with pads and rotors but mostly resolved now. Lots of space.. Engine and Transmission world class and will compare favorably with any other luxury SUV out there. Very fast and very comfortable for long trips on the highway..Gas mileage is awful in town and not much better on the freeway. No problems with the drivetrain.. I like the styling..Difficult to park around town but awesome on the fwy.. The miles just fly by Overall I really like it and would reccomend.. I have a 2004 with 58000 miles. Not many SUV out there could compare.. A really good value too"

"it would be better if they put surrounding camera on it and LED front daytime driving lights. Improving gas mileage It would be the best and comfort truck on market."

I love this SUV...

By Holli (WA) on Thursday, May 31, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 58,000

Pros: "Classy, sporty, handles great..."

Cons: "Maintenance is expensive"

"I love this truck; in fact, this is my second one. When I bought my first one (2006) I knew this was the truck for me. It has spacious seating and fits 8 comfortably. It drives and handles awesome! The music box (which holds all your music) is great...we put in a CD, hit record and it gets stored in the system. With the premium Bose sound system you can make any music sound good. Only a few complaints in my eyes…Obviously we knew about the poor gas mileage but if you maintain it properly and use premium gas it turns out a little better. I get about 15mpg and 22 mpg on highway. My only issue is the A/C pipe line seems to be a defective problem with these vehicles, as both of my QX56's had to be replaced...yeah, that’s a 1200.00 fix! My last complaint is that when it comes to the 60K premium service that needs to be done its going to cost you around 900.00!! Yes, I did say 900.00, but it includes everything under the hood and even to the door hinges. It’s expensive but that’s what you can expect when you drive an Infiniti."

Did my homework!

"I have owned this car for almost 2 years, wanted to wait and write this review until after I had it for awhile. SUV has lots of room and is very comfortable for large family/people. The features and ride are great, great convenience with fold in the floor 3rd row. I researched/drove all the big SUV"s and found this one the best. Not one service issue, love the music box and interior/exterior finishes vs. Armada and other big SUV's. This SUV is solid. Only bugger is gas mileage but that's what you get with big vehicle. Very comfortable and powerful traveling up and down mountains, high altitude in Colorado. Wife/kids love seat heaters in front and middle seats. Handles great (for big vehicle) and my mechanic is surprised at how easy it is on the brake pads. I highly recommend this car and I;ve been very happy with this purchase."
