What affects its junk value

  • Age: at 25 years old, most of a 2001 QX4's value comes from reusable parts and scrap metal, not resale.
  • Weight: as a SUV, it's heavier than a typical car, and scrap weight is a big part of any junk offer. See how scrap prices by weight work.
  • Catalytic converter: like all gas and diesel cars, it has a catalytic converter containing precious metals, one of the most valuable parts on a junk car. An offer assumes it's still in place. More on catalytic converters.
  • Recalls: NHTSA lists 4 recalls for the 2001 QX4. Open recalls don't stop you from selling or junking it.
  • Known problems: owners reported the most issues with the equipment, typically around 100,000 miles. If that's what failed on yours, it can still be sold as-is.

StructureAug 2001 · NHTSA campaign 01V282000

Vehicle description: sport utility vehicles. Some of the brackets used to attach the two gas struts to the rear door (hatch) may have been improperly made.

Electrical SystemDec 2000 · NHTSA campaign 00V410000

Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. These vehicles may have an ignition lock assembly with improperly seated key cylinder cap connector pins. Vibration can cause the connecting pins to loosen and/or fall out allowing the key cylinder cap to disengage from the key cylinder.
