Hello from Maine,
I own a 2013 Xterra with 95,000 miles (at this writing) and have had some minor and some major issues with it causing me to have a love/hate relationship with the SUV.
Back when there was only half as many miles on it, the Xterra stranded us on the side of the road with a dead computer. After expensive tows , expensive repairs that did not work, hauling the car from Virginia up to Maine and finally replacing the computer for $1,400.00+, we found a bent pin in the main connector to the ECM.
Since then, we have an issue with the ABS, non-skid, and other circuits. I have found the ABS issue had to do with a broken wire to the sensor at the left rear wheel. Trying to remove and replace the sensor, I broke off both fasteners in the hub. At this writing I am working on trying to remove the broken s=fasteners with an EZout. There is nothing easy about using an EZout.
Other than that, and after 95,000 miles, the Xterra has absolutely NO squeeks. You can't say that about Jeeps today.
I'll try to post some photos of mine here in the future.
