How reliable is the Nissan Qashqai?

How reliable is the Nissan Qashqai? I'm looking at a 2.0 CVT Auto Tekna version from 2009.

Hi Glen,

Qashqais are pretty well built, as are all Nissans, by and large. Just watch for soggy rear suspension (the dampers and bushes can wear out fast sometimes) and signs of abuse or neglect (they are designed for families after all) in the cabin.
