2003 Nissan X-Terra review from North America
"Great and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not much has gone wrong with it; it's been really good actually.
Changed the spark plugs and fluids on time, otherwise it's been great.
No problems, never been in the shop, the only thing I am noticing is the shocks/suspension is starting to make noises; might need to be changed. Makes weird noise over bumps and what not.
Otherwise a great truck; very reliable.
General comments?
Great truck, 4x4 is awesome.
The seats are good and comfortable, the back seats offer a great view.
The one thing I think this truck needed is more power. It struggles on up hills. 185 is not enough for this size truck, it needs more. Nissan changed the engine size after a few years, I think 06 or 07.
But yeah, otherwise a good truck, no problems, Nissan made a good solid ride.
