Vehicle year: 2002
I love this truck! It has everything I was looking for and has lived up to Nissan/Infiniti reputation. The gas mileage could be improved but if that is a major concern, it's better to buy a crossover vehicle than a traditional SUV. The Qx4 is truly a go-anywhere, do-anything vehicle that does it in style. I am disappointed that Infiniti replaced this SUV with the FX models. It was the perfect mid-size SUV!

So far, I have really enjoyed my QX4. It has all the luxury you could ever need, and I especially appreciate the in-dash 6-disc changer. The look and feel of the car is wonderful, and it handles better than most SUVs I've driven. Not to mention, it's incredibly comfortable. Even though it's four years old now, it still turns heads everywhere I go. I absolutely love it and think it was the best vehicle purchase for me.

Hi there! I just wanted to share my experience with my 1997 Infiniti Qx4. I bought it back in '99 as the second owner and I have to say, it's been the best car I've ever owned! My goal now is to reach 300K miles because the engine is just that good and reliable. Even though it's essentially a truck, it drives really well (although it can be a little bumpy in the back seats, my kids have never complained). You can haul a lot in it too, which is really handy. And let me tell you, in the snow and on mountain passes, this SUV can cut through anything! I've only had to use 4-low a few times, mostly I just hit the switch for 4wd and I can go anywhere with confidence. The only repair I've had to do was an alternator replacement at 140,000 miles. If you find a decent Qx4, even if it has over 100k miles, grab it! I don't plan on giving mine up anytime soon. Plus, it's got a killer six-speaker Bose sound system!

I hope you're doing well! I just wanted to say that I absolutely adore my QX4. It's been such a reliable car for me, and I've never had any issues with it. I've taken it up to the snow and it runs like a dream. Honestly, I drive it everywhere! Not only does it look great, but I feel great when I'm in it too. Thanks for listening!
Are you having problems with your Infiniti Qx4?

The sales process was similar to that of a Nissan experience. I ended up purchasing the vehicle because I was tired and liked it, and the sales team was able to offer me a good deal. However, the sales and service experience did not quite meet the high standards set by Lexus. Additionally, the SUV may not be the best fit for taller individuals. I would like to suggest that Infiniti improve the key and remote entry fob to match the luxury car standards rather than those of a Dodge.

This SUV is definitely a great second-hand buy! It has a sturdy and attractive appearance, and is essentially a luxury Nissan Pathfinder with an auto (AWD) mode. While the AWD mode may not be as effective as some other models, it still performs well. Compared to a Lexus or Acura, the suspension is a bit stiffer and there is slightly more cabin noise. However, it is important to note that the rear seating may not be the most comfortable, with limited headroom and a high seating position. If you plan on using a car seat, it may be best to consider other options. Additionally, the passenger door entry is a bit narrow, which can make moving a toddler in and out of a car seat a bit challenging. Overall, this SUV is a great choice for those looking for a reliable and stylish vehicle.
Domenico Lowe 2025-09-23
Vehicle year: 1998
Ours has about 90,000 miles on it and we haven't had any major issues. The interior is luxurious, the sound system is top-notch, and it handles great off-road. However, the engine could be more powerful and the noise level is higher than expected for a luxury vehicle. Additionally, the interior may feel cramped for taller individuals, but my wife, who is shorter, finds it comfortable.
Ceasar Kris 2025-09-12

Hello! I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to bring to your attention that there seems to be an issue with the right side unibody of your vehicle. Unfortunately, it appears that the engine and front differential are connected to the frame which cannot effectively be repaired. This could pose an extreme safety hazard. Even if the unibody could be repaired, it would only be temporary and could potentially pose a safety hazard for the next buyer and liability for the seller. I understand that Infiniti has repaired the driver's side strut tower housing, but it seems that they do not acknowledge the severity of the unibody rust. The dealer has indicated that other owners have experienced the same problem. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to assist you further. Thank you!

The QX4 has been a reliable first car for me. It has great looks and above-average handling for a truck. However, over time, I noticed some areas that could be improved. The gas mileage is not the best, averaging around 15 mpg, and I can only go about 250 miles on a tank. The V6 engine is not the most powerful, but it gets the job done. The back seat can be a bit choppy, and there is limited headroom, especially for someone who is 6'1
