2003 Nissan Maxima Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

It's a good car gas mileage is ok. For the mileage, I currently have on it which is 208,000.

Great and reliable car. Not really any problems. Also a great looking car and could do a lot of things to it to make it faster and make it look better than it already is. Could last a long time if you keep up to date with it. I don't think you can get better then a Nissan.

Loved the car when I first got it. Then hated it. It's a 2003 and had almost all the bells and whistles (heated seats, heated steering wheel, sunroof etc..) but then comes the check engine light and my nightmare begun. Changed all spark plugs and coils (nothing) changed vias (nothing) maintenance (and the process of elimination) changed oil and filter, air filter, checked all fuel injectors, and car was still running like c**p (well barely) but good news is that after all the blood sweat and tears it was just that I had 2 faulty ignition coils. Whew.... Purrs like a kitten again. But.... Rusted right out underneath car, muffler literally rusted off. I didn't look when I purchased used. Oops. Lesson learnt. But all in all, I'm back to loving the car and can't wait to take it on my trip through the mountains to BC. ???️?

It runs very well and is extremely reliable. The major flaw is that it's turning circle awful. It gets good gas mileage and has a roomy interior. The engine is powerful and has a good initial acceleration. It does not handle very well in icy conditions. The trunk is very large and the backseat has ample room to sit 3. The ceilings are a tad low, a problem if you are 6ft 4in or taller.

The vehicle was great when I first purchased it. Throughout the years wear and tear on the vehicle has made it an inconvenience to drive. It can be worth the money to fix it if you want to. But I would not blame someone for not wanting to put money in to keep fixing it.

It needs repairs at least once a month, is leaking oil, and only has 140,000 miles. It is rusted out. But the biggest problem I have is the anti theft system and since a new ignition was put in we can't reset the anti theft system so it won't let me start my car

My vehicle was good for about a year, and then the battery started dying for no reason. It is an issue with the breaks I believe. And the blower motor also needed replaced quickly after purchase. It has some major issues for sure. One other problem it has is that the stereo cuts in and out the bass shuts itself off and the front drivers side seat controls don't work.

The engine in the car runs great. The transmission also shifts well to. The issues I have with the car is mainly the catalyst converter. It has a three way catalyst converter so all three need to be replaced. Replacing each piece of the converter is $700-800 a piece. If the converter doesn't get replaced it usually affects the cars performance. For the fuel it recommends using premium fuel. It has power lock and windows and has radio.
