I love my Truck I bought it new in 2023 so far no complaints at all.It came from Rusty Wallace Nissan in Knoxville and they have been great to deal with.I have owned Fords,Chevrolets and this Truck is perfect for what I need at this time in my life.I would recommend this Truck to anyone how doesn’t need a lot of room in the back seat,there is enough room for adults but It could use a little more leg room.22508miles no problems.

Not sure if JD Powers quality award to nissan is a reflection on a bad standard or a sad state of affairs for overall vehicle manufacturers. 3 weeks in to owning a brand new 2025 Nissan Frontier long bed CC SL and I am finding some very dissapointing quality issues as follows: Pop the hood and it is very apparent the paint work is not what you would expect. Lack of coverage under the hood on the passenger side at the front of the hood. Enough lack of coverage that there is about 9 square inch area where you can see the primer. looking down the pinch weld area under the doors, you can see undercoating along the seam sealer. This is not isolated to this area and is apparent in other area's. The rock chip plastic transparent stickers in the area's of the back doors and front of the bed, show air bubbles and one of the stickers loose at the edge. Not that big of a deal at this point in time. However this is Florida and within a year or two with heat cycles each day, this air in the pockets will expand and get bigger. Then they will invariably turn yellow and be very noticable. Unfortunately no faith in nissan to do what is right in a couple of years from now to replace them. The black weather stripping on the front windshield at the base is not centered. After noticing this while shopping for a frontier, I have noticed a number of frontiers with this manufacturing defect. To include the one I bought. This issue was brought up at the time of purchase as well as the air bubbles. More on this later. Went to take the drivers floor mat out to vacuum and found that the INBD hold down clip was loose. these clips are about the cheapest clips you will ever see. they are designed as a rectangular loop that goes around two slots in the carpet in a longtidunal plane of the vehicle. At the forward end is a snap to hold it to the carpet. The one on mine does not latch and looks like the catch was never manufactured into it. Rear dome light is intermittent on the setting for operating when opening the door. Rear drivers side door sounds like a 3 year old in a bathtub, door has a significant amount of water that sloshes around in it and does not drain. Approached 3 dealerships with question of getting these addressed. Been told that nissan policy is to drop vehicle off so a Master Tech can look at the vehicle. They say this is required by nissan before they can make another appointment for the customers return to get repairs completed and be provided a vehicle by nissan. My chief complaint to nissan customer service was the excessive time they are placing on owners of the vehicles to leave the vehicle at the dealership, when a simple walk around by the service writer or a tecnician would take all of 15 minutes to verify these simple items. Spoke to Asekha at nissan customer service, all she did was try and insult me by telling me it is a dealer issue and not a nissan issue. 3 seperate dealerships ex;lained the nissan policy to me very clearly. sugest before you purchase, give vehicle a thorough look over and not take delviery until quality issues are resolved.

I researched lots of trucks. The reliability was not good and prices were through the roof ! Dependability is my first and biggest requirement. Nissan Frontier fits the best in reliability department. Then come the bells and whistles. The SL has all the comfort and luxury features and will impress you.

I have only one complaint about this truck in that it has a wide turning radius. Other than this I think it’s a better truck than Toyota. Quieter, more powerful and has a better ride.

I ran my 2011 Nissan Frontier SV king cab 6 speed manual 4x4 to over 200k miles until it finally starting giving me issues. Figured my good luck w/ the Frontier would last into the 2022 model year. I was mistaken. In no particular order, my disappointments are; - Sketchy technology. Forward camera throws an error when driving into the sun. Front radar will chime at what it thinks is an obstruction when there is nothing there. A couple recalls to fix brake stop switch and a transmission issue as well. - While the truck is powerful, its woefully slow. The 9 speed tranny does everything in its power to get to the 9th gear as quick as possible making it terribly unresponsive in city traffic. I spend most of my drive just manually shifting it. But, moving from one gear to the next is more like a suggestion to the truck rather than a command. If it doesn't think it needs to shift, it won't. - Lately it has decided to keep itself locked even after pushing the fob unlock. Or, it gets stuck somewhere in between lock and unlock and wont release the door. Climbing in thru the passenger side and operating driver door from there has fixed it up to now. - There are areas of the body, especially around the engine bay where there is little to no paint. - The intelligent cruise control is 'nervous' to say the least. I can set it at highway speeds and it will work correctly, but, introduce a slight hill into the mix where the speed reduces by just a couple MPH and the system will jam the gas trying to get it back up to speed. Only to be followed by a braking action to reduce it. Even using the system as a normal CC has the same issue. This was a new redesign and it shows. Just unhappy and I probably should have done more research before buying. Looking to trade it in on a mid-size truck w/ a manual tranny. Of which I find there are just two left.
