At 50,000 miles the car is falling apart

At first everything was ok, but after a year things started falling apart. Do your research on Altimas or even infinity. Lots of class action lawsuits, trying to get Nissan to fix their cars. Terrible products.

Yes, bought car used in 2018. Just reached 70,000 miles and the transmission is toast, lost of highway driving. I have had other Altima's never had issues. My understanding Big Problems with the CVT. It's UNACCEPTABLE! Car is for SALE!

2017 ALTIMA 2.5 s

I have always loved every model of the Altima. I think that I have had every model from 1995 to the 1999 to the 2017!! Nissan gets better & better. I adore my new Altima, it has everything that I am looking for and more. It handles the road flawlessly and the design is sleek. It catches a lot of eyes and I am happy to show it off!

2017 Nissan Altima

Literally the worse car I’ve ever had. The brake light switch is constantly going out which causes the car to not operate at all. Very inconvenient. My older nissan was much more reliable and gave me little to no problems.

Grandma loves her new mid-size sports car

I knew nothing about Nissan or Altima. I think I saw something on the internet. The dealership called me. They talked me into coming down to the dealership. My husband and I went down and we ended up buying the car on the spot. I LOVE THIS CAR! We both feel like we are almost in a sports car. It is fun to drive, I feel very safe in it because of all of the safety features. We both have loved this car right from the first time we got into it. We got all of the bells and whistle and we are still learning how to use it. This is a great car for us. (NOTE: we have had nothing but SUV's for years, we moved our of an area that gets a lot of snow to the desert so I don't need an SUV, besides my husband still has one.) Boy am I loving having a fun, good looking, sharp car.)
