Review on Nissan Qashqai (new model)

[catalan24]

Hey guys, I am considering purchasing this vehicle as everything from looks to performance seems good. However, I just wanted to get some second opinions from actual owners about the vehicle. Thanks

Hi good day this vehicle is excellent no bad reviews have one since 2014 no problems so far good power fuel consumption cvt works really good

Hey ,thanks for the review..how about seat spacing for a year old toddler...I found that the car seat really picks up alot of space.

Have a local PDG from Massy, earlier this year the radiator fan stopped working. Was replaced in warranty tho

If you do buy one, don't make the mistake and put in big wheels - stick with the originals. I agree that they certainly look nice and it's a Nissan. Space may be a bit tight for that child's seat. Just take it with you in the showroom! We have to start demanding everything we want to know about a vehicle before buying from a some lazy a$$ salesman who don't even want to take you for a test drive... And in some real Trini roads too, not the highway

[catalan24]

well i am upgrading from a tiida, so hopefully it will atleast be bigger lol as for the minor issue with the radiator fan which was resolved by the warranty, I am really hoping not to be the unlucky one to experience any major issues.

Nissan12...u are right, the salesman should really work for this sale as its not really small $ forking out here. really hoping its a worthwhile vehicle as I'm also considering a used rav4 as well. I have some experience with the rav4 as my dad has one and its really good, no issues thus far.

[fadil]

Besides the qashqai are you considering any other vehicles?

[catalan24]

well besides the rav4.......not really sold by hyundai and kia...previous experience was not good. the mazda cx5 looks good but a lil over priced imo..$376k 4x4...

Rad fan is an issue with these cars even the first gen model but apart from that and the oil consumption due to failure or lack maintenance on the egr system they are good. Biggest expense is the subframe when the bushings go bad.

[catalan24]

waw...good info...I just think that $300k for an investment like the qashqai..u shouldn't be having these sort of problems..don't yall think?

4X4 model seems to have some suspension noise issue.
Front suspension sounds like an old van , creaking at every bump and hump.
Heard it from day 2.
I am taking it to get checked next week, but the word is from other owners Massy knows what the issue is and fixes it.
Will try to get some details.

[unforgivensaint]

hey, yeh the noise happens. they fixed it when i went to get my service done. i recently started to hear the noise from the fan, i'm looking to go and let them sort it out next week. if any other problems arise i'll post and let you know about it

[Bow26]

Any one know where can I get the front cradle bushings for the model qashqai
