Nissan Maxima Reliability through December 31, 2012

An asterisk (*) marks results based on small sample sizes.

General NotesModels and statistics marked with an asterisk (*) have very low sample sizes. These results, visible only to logged-in members, provide only a rough estimate of car reliability.

Any result under 20 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase to 20 or so in future updates.

New models often start out with high repair rates, and then improve as the manufacturer identifies and addresses common problems. MethodologyOnly successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Routine maintenance, most wear items, recalls, and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

What Our Members Are Saying about Nissan Maxima Reliability and Durability

Reliability and Durability of the Nissan Maxima: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 car that will last a long time with very little problems
2003 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 It is incredibly reliable and durable
2002 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed manual FWD		 It has far fewer problems than the Taurus and is predicted to age with more grace than the 4th generation Tauruses could ever hope to achieve.
2002 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed manual FWD		 I Beat the Hell out of the thing day in and day out. I take corners as fast as I can then pin the throttle out of the whole and the car never falters. This thing really takes a beating every day from me with no questions asked.
2002 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed manual FWD		 Great engine, gets good reviews. Fit and finish is very good, even for this older car. No squeaks or rattles.
Reliability and Durability of the Nissan Maxima: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2004 4dr Sedan 265-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 The sheet metal is prone to rusting.
