Used 2016 Nissan Altima Consumer Reviews
Recently Purchased My 2016 Altima 2.5 SR
I wrote my original review at just under 1000 miles and mentioned how much I liked this vehicle. I now have 11240 miles and nothing much has changed. Car is still very comfortable as a daily driver. Ride comfort and handling are very good. Road noise on the highway isn't great, but acceptable. Great fuel economy. I may consider the 3.5 next time around for the extra power and less road noise, but the 2.5 isn't bad in town or on the hwy. Still love the look of the car with the SR package. The interior is holding up great, though I will say that I clean the vehicle on a weekly basis so it still looks like new. Other than a couple of recalls and oil changes, the vehicle has been pretty much maintenance free.

Great so far
This is my 4th Altima. I drive them for 8-9 years and then buy a new one. I've only had my 2016 for a month but so far it is the best by far. My only complaint is the USB port won't work with my iPhone. Nissan says it will be corrected and is due to an upgrade to the IOS by Apple. Not sure why that would happen if they had good programmers but as long as it is corrected soon it's not a big issue to me.

Stay away from Nissan Altima 2016
I had the 2016 for a little over a year and have had to take it to the dealer 4 times already because the check engine light turns on. Finally the car got a transmission problem where it had to be replaced. During this time I got a rental Nissan Altima and the check engine light turn on on the 5th day. These cars are junk.

Beautiful car
I really like this car. After owning 2 SUVs. I decided to buy a sedan. I bought the top of the line Altima with all the options available. I am very pleased. Mileage is great, 35 mpg for my normal driving (not highway driving). Very comfortable with great visibility. The interior is very nice, leather seats, moon roof, etc. Safety features are well designed and intuitive Very happy with this car

Stay away from the Altima 3.5 SR
When I purchased this car it was like driving a pocket rocket....loved it! I took it to the dealer, for maintenance, and when they gave it back to me it didn't have any of the acceleration anymore. I've been trying to work with Nissan and their dealers to get it back to my "original" experience. Most dealer techs acknowledge that it doesn't perform the way a 3.5 SR should be performing; acceleration, handling, etc., but will only tell me that it's operating within specs. The problem is, it seems that the dealers have (at most) only received one of these models so they're not familiar with the difference of having a 6 cylinder versus a 4 cylinder under the hood. I don't know what to do, but would warn anyone thinking of purchasing the 3.5 SR....don't. You may think you're buying that "pocket rocket", but after the dealer hooks it up to their diagnostics, you'll be driving the 2.5 version.
