Great choice! Nissan SUVs have a reputation for being very reliable. In fact, five of the six SUV models in Nissan’s lineup rank in the top three most reliable SUVs in their class according to J.D. Power.
Here’s a look at each Nissan SUV’s J.D. Power dependability rating:
  • Rogue
    : 84/100 (#3 in compact SUV category)
  • Rogue Sport
    : 84/100 (#3 in compact SUV category)
  • Kicks
    : 85/100 (#2 in small SUV category)
  • Murano
    : 86/100 (#1 in midsize SUV category)
  • Pathfinder
    : 80/100 (#5 in midsize SUV category)
  • Armada
    : 78/100 (#3 in large SUV category)
In addition to the high praise garnered from J.D. Power, the Rogue, Murano, and Pathfinder all receive above-average reliability ratings from RepairPal.
Not only are they reliable, but Nissans SUVs are also quite safe. Three of Nissan’s utes—the Rogue, Murano, and Pathfinder—brought home Top Safety Pick+ awards from the IIHS for 2022, while the Rogue and Murano both received five-star safety ratings from the NHTSA.
