1996 Nissan Maxima SE review from North America
"All around great car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Window on driver side stopped working.
General comments?
This is by far the best car I have ever owned. I got the car in 1997 and it had 12,000 miles on it. I now have 160,000 miles on the car and I have had nothing go wrong on the car other than the window on the driver side stopped working. Other than oil changes and stuff that you have done on any car, tires and things like that, the window is the only thing I have had to fix. Don't get me wrong not everything about the car is perfect such as.
The seats are very uncomfortable in a trip that is going to be more than 2 hours.
The sunroof leaks just a little sometimes in a very hard rain or carwash.
The Nissan Maxima I have is a SE model witch comes with.
Leather, Cd and Tape player, Sunroof,
5-speed, Bose sound system.
Its totally as loaded as you can get one and I still trust this car as much as I did when I first got it. By the way when you get out on the interstate be careful! This car will flat move and handles like a race car. Don't ever wonder if you have enough room to pass someone because this car will get around anyone in a very short space.
