Drove from Michigan to Arizona

This was an extremely great purchase for me. I got my 2018 Altima in November of 2018. It had 6,000 mile on it. I was some what pleased with it. It grew on me over the next few months. I totally fell in love with it when I took a job in Phoenix, AZ. I was living in Southfield, MI and was relocating to Arizona. My nephew and I decided to drive my Nissan from Michigan all the way to Phoenix, AZ. This car was AWESOME. We only filled up 4 times, 4 times and we drove straight through, we did not stop to sleep along the way. I am forever a Nissan customer now. I loved the ride and how it handled. This was, by far, one of the best cars I have ever owned. Thank you Nissan and I will be purchasing more Nissan products in the future.

I purchased a 2018 Altima. It was my 3rd and final Nissan purchase for my family. How can a 3 year old car need a new transmission? Nissan consumer affairs was USELESS! Do not buy Nissan!

This is our fifth Nissan Altima...obviously we are very pleased with the car! After retirement, we switched from the more expensive Maxima to the Altima as our family car. Compared to other vehicles similarly equipped, from other manufacturers, the Altima was the best priced. I know from 10+ years of driving these Altimas that they are reliable (I haven't had any mechanical issues with any of them!), get above-average gas mileage, and offer a very enjoyable driving/riding experience! I will definitely continue to buy Nissan vehicles, specifically the Altima!

I had a 2009 Altima. I loved it. Very comfortable and great interior quality. When a deer got depressed and decided to commit suicide on the interstate there wasn’t much of a question as to what car we were getting. We’ve both regretted it nearly every day since. First problem is the “leather” interior is anything but leather. It’s cheap crap. The whole interior feels cheap and plastic unlike the older car. The second gripe is the headlights. I absolutely despise them. Doesn’t matter how they’re adjusted. If you’re in any kind of uneven road it looks to the oncoming traffic like you’re flashing your high beams because of the projector lenses. Get used to people flashing their lights and getting angry. Also unlike the old car we’ve had mechanical issues. I also despise the dealer. In general, I hate this car and have no desire to ever buy anothe Altima.
