I really like my vehicle. As a student it helps me get around between school and work which is just what I need. Its less of a luxury car but it gets me places with no problem! The interior is really nice and getting it repaired does not cost much at all which really helps as a student. I would definitely recommend getting it as a first car because it is very safe and reliable.

Great car for families, tall people, anyone.
This car has super comfortable seats. There is tons of room no matter where you sit!! It comes standard with a DVD player so the people in the back have entertainment. That is a great feature for if you have little ones. I'drives very smooth and quiet.

It is a gas hog! Around town I get about 12 miles to the gallon and on highway about 19 miles to the gallon.
I love that it is big and I am able to drive just about anywhere without having to worry about road conditions. My only complaint is the gas mileage. It uses a lot of gas.

2011 Nissan armada review from owner.
I love this truck. It is very spacious and has been beneficial on family road trips. The maintenance can be a little price, as with any SUV. Nissan parts are fairly easy to find, which makes it easy to shop around for great deals. Overall, this SUV is a great investment.

Armada great for large family.
I have had no problems with my Armada. I absolutely love the space inside. My edition has backup cameras which I find very helpful. Other than regular maintenance my truck has not been in the shop. The third row offers enough space for adults as well as children.

Great truck for those who want comfort.
The truck is spacious and comfortable. Very luxurious only downside is the mileage and gas. I find the truck to be very reliable, only regular maintenance is needed if you keep up with everything. There’s different types of the particular truck. I recommend the platinum or titanium edition, comes with everything.

Car of the decade, very reliable.
The car is very wonderful. It is amazing in all type of seasons. I have had the car for more than 5 years and it is holding up good. Sometimes I have to take it into the mechanic for minor issues. Recently it has been an inconvenience because at work it literally wouldn't start but I got it fixed afterwards. Good car for a big family, since I bought it for my family of 5.

The most important thing about my truck is that I feel safe in it!
I love that it is big and sits high, I love my heated steering wheel!

One of the best rides, ever!
Have had for 2 years. No big issues at all!! Mechanically sound. Interior and exterior has held up to 3 kids and pets! The only downfall, would be that it is not Bluetooth but does have an aux plug. The vehicle came with DVD player which has are a DVD and will not give it back but obviously does not take away from the vehicle itself.

Comfortably seats 7, rides great, drives well, - great for family trips.
Seats up to 7. Third and middle row fold flat for more luggage space. Seat heaters, folding side mirrors, leather interior. Drives well and will pull a loaded trailer easily. Comfortable ride. Biggest problem, drain holes around sunroof get stopped up and will leak into interior.

Third row seat and great hauling power
My car is above 160000 miles and is working great. No problems whatsoever. Only had to do routine maintenance. Super comfortable, lots of room for taking kids everywhere. Lots of room for luggage and people on long road trips.I would highly recommend this vehicle.

Ultimate mom car with style.
I love the space this vehicle provides. It is perfect for my kiddos and they're friends. The rear row folds completely down by electric button which is great for traveling. You can fold down the whole row or half of it. The middle row passenger seats fold down seamlessly to allow for easy entrance into the rear row. There is a TV for the kids entertainment as well. The stereo system is my favorite part. It is a Bose surround sound system. The leather interior paired with the sunroof make this the ultimate stylish mom car.

on October 24, 2020
It is a very comfortable ride and it makes me feel safe driving it.
I love the space and size. It would be great if it were a flex and used electricity and gas. It would have been great to have had better gas mileage.
Jeanette G
on October 14, 2020
Love the space and width of car.
Love the roominess, and that it can fit 3 car seats across middle row. Would love it included more lower anchors for forward facing car seats. Would also love the ability to slide forward middle row seats to access the third row seats to get to my children better and not have to remove car seats. A slightly larger trunk when 3rd row is up would be beneficial too.

on October 7, 2020
Plenty of room, dependable.
I have had no problems with my armada. General vehicle upkeep is all I had to do until just over 100k miles when my radiator went out. My armada is almost 10 years old and I will continue to hold onto it because it has more than paid itself off. We have taken multiple trips to the river and it holds everything we need. We briefly thought about buying a camper and were told this armada can pull up to 8000 pounds. The captains chairs in the middle section at perfect to keep my kids separated!
Tiffany F
on October 3, 2020
Excellent family vehicle.
The heated leather seats and heated steering wheel are two of my favorite features. Not an expensive vehicle to maintain. The drive is smooth and it has tons of room. We have myself, my husband and 6 children two of which are in car seats and everyone fits comfortably. Pretty ok on gas considering it is an 8 cylinder engine. The DVD player keeps the kids entertained on long drives.
ANGELA S
on September 9, 2020
Love my smooth/roomy armada.
Wish it had auto lock when put in gear. Lots of room - holds 8 people and still have room to store things. Rides great - short or long trips. Lots of technology to keep you informed - tire pressure, etc... Wish the back up camera was a little more clear. Wish it had GPS for navigation.

Nissan Armada SV 2011 Review
I've had this vehicle for 7 years. Overall, it has been a very reliable truck, no major mechanical issues, only real trouble was with the vents making a clicking noise off and on, turned out to be the actuator that needed to be repaired which required the dash to be taken apart, lots of labor involved for that. This vehicle is Big, but I love it, very comfortable riding, I feel safe in it when I drive with our kids. We have 160,000 miles on it and still going strong. Air conditioner could stand to blow a little colder than what it does. Overall, have been very happy with the truck
Nicole L
on August 15, 2020
Love my armada, mpg is its biggest flaw.
It currently needs some maintenance but over all love it. Biggest downside is the mpg. It has been great for our family, lots of space for the kids and dog. Kids really love the built in TV DVD system. I also love the sunroof and sound system. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a large SUV and mpg is not a concern.
Jasmin C
on August 12, 2020
My vehicle fits my whole family and they have plenty of room.
I have a 2011 Nissan armada with v8 engine and Bose speakers. I love the keyless entry and start also the DVD player system that's included. I get my peace from my kids watch movies the whole ride. I have all black leather seat 3rd row seating of course is always a plus. CarMax gave me a great car shopping experience.
Dan M
on August 11, 2020
Reliable car with minor issues.
The lights were always burning out and the key would stop working randomly. The car was overall smooth riding and never gave me trouble. The heated seats help in the winter. The interior seats were leather and they held up okay until year 8 then they cracked a little.
Erica G
on August 9, 2020
Why should you consider owning a Nissan armada.
This vehicle is very reliable and luxurious apart from the electrical issues I have had within the steering wheel. I have heard this is very common in these types of cars but it does not affect the performance. It has third row seating with buttons to automatically put the seats down for extra cargo space. It has a built in TV/DVD player with 3 disc capacity includes two pairs of good quality headphones, rear camera and also has a warning if you become too close to an object on the front of the car and the rear. Heated mirrors, heated seats and heated steering wheel are all great features of this car. As well as the beautiful leather interior. The wood grain the accentuates the tan interiors make it look very expensive but is most definitely affordable. Come with alloy wheels that are eye catching as well and it has a sunroof that lifts or completely opens. Not to mention the rear controls for the radio and the heating or cooling. There is also an additional charger port in the rear. I love the Nissan armada!

That the tire pressure is always low on the tires.
In the 5 years that I have had the car I have had to buy new tires 3 times and the tire pressure is almost always off.
Natalie G
on July 20, 2020
More than anything I like the reverse camera and sensors.
I really like my vehicle, the reverse camera!Is great and really helps me park when I want to do reverse parking, the sunroof is a great luxury when the weather feels nice, and the sensors help me make sure I do not hit anyone or anything. However the only thing I do not like is that it is supposed to be Bluetooth and it never connects to my phone.

Reliable and Spacious
By far the best vehicle I’ve ever had and I bought it with 90000 miles. I’ve had a brand new highlander and Rav 4, both don’t compare.

Nissan armada backup camera is wonderful.
I have had my vehicle for almost a year and I have only had a problem with a small issue with my driver sides seat making weird noises when I moved forward or backwards. This was handled by the dealership and had been working great ever since. We are a family of five and always have extra kids with us so the vehicle had a lot of space and room to move around. Plus the two captain seats in back have more space to lay all the way back and comes in handy when we go on road trips. My car also came with two TVs so my children get to enjoy movies on road trips or just a night drive out on the town. My brakes work great and during snow days I have access to put my car in four wheel drive. My backup camera works great and gives me a perfect view of any persons or vehicles that should be in the way while backing up and when a car is driving beside me or in front of me the motion detector sound and lights beep and flash. I have a third row seat with plenty of legroom for any extra passengers and enough trunk space to put soccer chairs groceries anything that I can store back there I have a third row seat with plenty of legroom for any extra passengers and enough trunk space to put soccer chairs groceries anything that I can store back there. Radio sound system works great and has the ability to turn on the sound for the movies or my kids can put on the earphones to listen to their movies. The gas mileage is on trip works great where I can fill up my gas tank for $50 and make it from home to a six hour trip to Dallas drive around the weekend without filling up.

on May 27, 2020
I would definitely consider buying a new armada at some point.
Very spacious. I have owned it for almost 3 years and have not had any problems. Very comfortable on long trips, my kids love it. Leather, sunroof, DVD player. I wish it had a option to play music off your phone. 136,000 miles and very reliable.
sandy c
on May 18, 2020
The car has lots of room and great legroom. It can carry many passengers without seeming cramped. It is also large enough to make me feel safe
The armada is very roomy - lots of legroom. The ride is smooth and has a great turning radius. The only bad characteristic is that the battery drains too quickly (does not seem big enough for the vehicle)
Dustin H
on April 27, 2020
Very family oriented and practical.
The vehicle has been very reliable. The service has been very user friendly. The space is perfect for a large family. The safety of the vehicle is outstanding as well as all other aspects. General maintenance with the particular vehicle has been very accommodating for a lower income family.
Bridget F

It has lots of room to store stuff. Largest SUV on the road.
I like the room it provides but the gas mileage is terrible. The 3rd row seat is nice to separate the kids. DVD player is a must.

Armada-affordable-roomy-smooth.
Great SUV. Very spacious and roomy, has DVD players so it's great for kids and long trips. Runs and drives very smoothly. Rear controlled air and heat. Dual climate control up front, so you could have the driver side at 60 degrees and the passenger side at 80 degrees if you like.

That you can fit 8 people inside it.

My vehicle is a black 2011 Nissan armada. Very roomy and seats comfortably.
My truck is 9 years old and has never given me any trouble. The only things that I have had to replace were tires, brakes, and battery. It is a very reliable vehicle. He has over 120,000 miles specifically highway miles. It is very comfortable and roomy especially for tall people. The only thing that I dislike now is that the paint on the hood is peeling off. I feel that the paint jobs on vehicles these days are not of quality paint. But overall I am very satisfied with my Nissan armada and will be driving it until it conks out on me.
Matt K
on February 7, 2020
Nissan Armada practical for all families.
I really have no complaints about my car. Maybe I wish it got better gas mileage but other than that this is the best vehicle I've ever owned. I have driven across the country and back. The comfort that the car provides makes it easy to do so. Roomy with a 3rd row. Perfect for all types of driving.
Joy D
on November 25, 2019
The silver bullet, does what it needs to do.
The fan clicks when I turn on the ac or heater. The tire gauge is always saying I have one low tire. Other than that it is a great vehicle. I love how many seats it has and it fits my family well. The radio switch on the steering wheel does not work anymore but that is not a big deal.
Tiffany H
on November 3, 2019
The best vehicle for a family or anyone who likes a big SUV. Plenty of room.
I have had to replace the alternator and spark plugs but those are the only problems I have had. The interior is in incredible condition as I have tried to take care of it. No issues in the body or engine other than maintenance. I will never drive anything other than an armada for the rest of my life.
Joshua M
on October 4, 2019
I love the optional 3rd row seating.
My family and I decided to purchase this vehicle because we have 3 kids and go on many mini vacations where they sometimes bring friends along. It is a great choice where room is concerned. It was difficult getting used to driving something so big however. It is also extremely expensive on fuel.
Bert V

It is a great family car with plenty of room for everyone.
I've only owned the vehicle for a few months now. I love it. It handles very well in regular driving conditions and in the rain. I like the back up camera. It is very roomy for my family. I like that the 3rd row folds down and you don't have to remove the seats.
Tessa C
on July 21, 2019
It's a great family vehicle
I love this vehicle! We have the platinum edition and have no complaints. The middle seat in the second row is by itself, so you can remove it to make bucket seats. The seats are comfortable for long drives. We use it to haul a 40 foot camper and it has no difficulties hauling it. The back is really roomy even with the back row up.

2011 Nissan Armada - Great towing and family vehicle
Handles very well on ice and snow. Has towed everything from campers to boats without a problem. Has plenty of room for all of the kids! Is super comfortable on long trips! Handles like a truck with the space of a minivan. The only complaint I have is the seat adjustment motor only works some of the time. Making it difficult to adjust for multiple drivers.
Niki C
on June 26, 2019
A highlight is the comfort of the driver and passenger seats.
The Nissan armada is spacious and comfortable. It is perfect for large families. I have twin boys and the infant seats along with my daughter were all able to fit comfortably in the 2nd row. The 3rd is perfect for small kids but can be a little tight for older kids and adults. The biggest issue I have is the gas mileage. It eats up a lot of gas.
Christen C
on June 21, 2019
Its is big enough for my family of 5. I only dislike that it is hard to get in and out of
I would say the most important thing others should know about our car is that it is a tank and very durable

Ideal reliable family car.

Loyal armada customer. Low maintenance, excellent reliability.
This is my second Nissan armada. I have very few issues, mostly in the shop for maintenance. The comfort level is as expected for a luxury SUV. I am actually planning on purchasing my 3rd armada sometime in the next year. If there’s one negative I will say that I am not thrilled with the new body style. It's a little too rounded for my taste.
Sara P
on May 26, 2019
My Armada is black with chrome accents.
I get lights, like check for service, often when there is nothing wrong. I purchased the car used and there is a missing cable for the emergency break so I do not know when the break is set. This has caused me to drive with the break on. Other than that, I like the spacious room, leather seats, DVD players, and other features!
Bonnie A

My Armada has plenty of leg room and an excellent tow package. It's also 4WD
I really like the size of my armada. I can for 7 people comfortably, including my 6'4' teenage boys. They have plenty of legroom. I like that we can tow a trailer or boat with no problems. We also have 4WD, which is good in winter weather when the roads are slick.
Brittany S

An interesting detail is when in a car crash there's not much damage to the truck.
The vehicle is the best especially with traveling far and it has so much room nobody is too close the gas or great. I love it honestly it is good for a family of 4 or more there’s everything to love about it. Good for the beach or going far. It is a good truck to drive around the reliability is great it is safe for kids to be in. The features are great nothing looks bad everything works great.

Perfect for my family. Spacious, luxurious.

Karen B
on March 21, 2019
It can hold a large family without being a minivan.
I like that the vehicle is large. I have three children and the vehicle is large enough to hold all of us and all of the stuff that goes with us. The vehicle is also 4 wheel drive, which makes me feel safer when the weather is bad.

Features I love about my armada.
I really enjoy having heated seats and a heated steering wheel, especially in the cold winter months. I also really like the sunroof, I enjoy driving around with my family on a nice day with the sunroof open! However, my favorite feature is the rear view camera because I always park easily in reverse now.
Mary F

Platinum happiness, tough luxury is what I call it!
Although I had to replace the brake sensor shortly after buying my Armada, I absolutely love it! Smooth ride, easy handling, great on gas for the size of the vehicle. And oh the bells & whistles! Just wish it had a multi-disc CD player instead of single!
Joyce E

Greatest car I have ever owned.
It is very reliable, comfortable and safe. It fits 8 passengers very comfortably. You can control the radio from the steering wheel. It has a DVD player for the kids in the back. The seats are nice and wide for larger people like my in laws. The heat and ac are great. The radio has a CD player that holds 6 CDs at a time.
Alicia Z
on December 26, 2018
Very nice when you go for long distances.
Ac problem every year. Ac line licks. Will probably have to change all the time. Fuel crazy. 15 ph. I like it though, it is comfy and stable on road. Good for big family and animals. Good for a long trips if we going for a vacation. Only bad is that eats to much.
Nicole S

Comfortable Nissan armada ride.
Very comfortable ride. Very roomy for all passengers, the 3rd row is comfortable as long as your not super tall. I have not had any mechanical problems with the armada. I do not like the set up with the carpet coverings on the back of the 2nd row seats, they are there to cover gap when all seats are down but they do not stay up well so I had to use safety pins to keep them up the back of seats so they do not hang onto 3rd row seats. Overall I really like the armada!

Spacious comfortable riding
Very reliable, plenty of space, gas mileage is pretty good for a SUV , plenty of cup holders. Turn radius is amazing. All the seats on the back row fold down to make a large area for transporting large awkward items. Engine has plenty of power and corners like a small car.

Great vehicle for functionality and style.
I love my Nissan armada! It is stylish yet functional. I have the platinum edition so it is fully loaded. It includes leather seats, heated seats, power seat controls, an entertainment center with Bose speakers and TV screens. It has 3 rows of seats with room for 8 adults. The 3rd row folds flat if you need more trunk space. There's a huge cargo rack on top as well. It also has chrome wheels.
