What customers are saying

The 2016 Nissan Frontier balances power and reliability with an affordable entry point, earning praise for its strong V6 engine, enjoyable ride quality, and overall dependability. However, shortcomings in fuel efficiency, outdated technology, and cabin noise detract from its appeal, especially for modern truck enthusiasts.

Write a review
A solid truck!

PROS
Power

Its a very strong engine with a lot of low end torque.

Cabin Noise

It's a comfortable interior; low noise, clean, good A/C.

Reliability

I'm sure the truck will last forever. It will probably still be running when my grandson is an old man.

CONS
Fuel Economy

I'm getting 16 to 18 mpg over three tanks of gas. With the price of gas going so much higher since April I might have choosen a different vehicle in February. I'm sure it will come back down.

Cabin Noise

Once I brought the truck home I realized it was making a strange noise in the cabin. Only when making a left-hand turn there is a mysterious "GONG" noise that is unmistakable. It's a nuisance and I haven't been able to locate the cause.

Ride and Handling

I would wish the truck felt more nimble but then for that I would probably have been better off in a Honda Ridgeline.

Just what I was looking for.

PROS
Cost to Maintain

I have the bare bones model. Auto/AC are only options and it's perfect. Less stuff to break.

Cargo Space

It's a truck

Technology and Entertainment

I purposely bought this one because it has a CD player and I am old. But it does have an aux port for when I want to play spotify.

CONS
Fuel Economy

You know what you're getting with these. Luckily I don't drive that much.
