You did not mention how many miles this qx4 has on it. The biggest maintenance item is replacing the timing belt at 100,000 miles. If a dealer does it, I would think it could be fairly expensive ($400-500??). Other than that these are fairly reliable vehicles. I bought a 97 w/ 60,000 miles on it 2 years ago. It now has 79,000. I had to have a new exhaust manifold, but that is covered by a 100,000/100 month warranty.The brakes are still original and will last to at least 90,000 miles. So I don't have any complaints.
