DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER A QASHQAI!
Rattly unreliable, poor quality product, repeated warranty claims and exorbitant servicing/repair costs.
At the first service, they charged my then wife £330 for just an oil change and lube!?
We are on our third set of rear shocks under warranty and these have also started to fail, along with the front ones now.
The shocks are made in Turkey, the engine is French (they tend to produce overcomplicated and unreliable engineering).
Constant, but intermittent engine management alarms and engine loses power. This once happened suddenly on the motorway – nearly caused an accident. Not even the main agent can work out what is wrong. They have quoted £1500 to fix this!?
Many niggles: exterior door handles stick open so the doors won’t close as you get in, inner door handle snapped off – made of chromed plastic!? Squeaky seats, windows completely misting up with condensation in winter and won’t clear.
The owners forum had to remove the multiple and repeated complaints. From reading this, we discovered that our problems were commonplace.
Worst of the twenty or so cars I have owned!
It’s a “scrapper”, total rubbish and Nissan UK weren’t interested!
Rubbish product, rubbish service, rubbish attitude from UK distributor!
DO NOT BUY ONE!
