2003 Nissan X-Terra EX review from North America
"Exactly what I expected and paid for"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
In the beginning, the check engine light came on. The dealership had to reset it twice before completely going away. I also I had to have numerous brackets replaced from the front bumper, but other than that, just normal oil changes.
General comments?
I really enjoy having the 4x4 and it works like a charm. When I bought the truck, I knew I would be in for a rough ride so no complaints there. The back seat could use a little more room, but compared to others in it's class it is comparable (Jeep Liberty, Honda CRV, etc). For the price, I believe I got exactly what I paid for. The only thing I am very disappointed with is the gas mileage. The sticker states 17-21 but I am lucky if I get 16 with either city or highway. This is now my "winter" vehicle only to save on gas.
