Most reliable car I owned.

This car is fantastic. Very reliable. In 50 k miles I owned it I changed only tires brakes and a control arm. It is roomy, has a lot of features( I own the 3.5 Sr).

So far so good but a few issues

Mostly good but had an air flow sensor go bad at 84,000 miles and a wheel bearing at 99,650 miles. Both very expensive repairs. The CVT service is expensive (about $200.00) but so far, no issues at 100k miles. Found that buying inexpensive tires was a mistake. My SR model requires decent tires; Michelin, Continental..etc.

So far so good

The 2011 Nissan Altima s performs well and the car has good handling. Ive had it a while and after my last oil change the door actuator drivers lock quit and works sporadically. Hopefully replacing it wont be a arm and a leg. Otherwise best car on the market for the money.

Most luxurious car I've owned

This car has heated leather seats and a Bose sound system. When I first saw it I thought it was more than I needed! The price was right, it was used, pre-scratched, and had just over 50,000 miles. I have put over 50,000 miles miles on it and have found it to be very dependable, gets great gas mileage, comfortable, and fun to drive. When I am carpooling kids I wish I had more space but the backseat is roomy for a car. The only downside is the cost of insurance. I did not realize Nissans cost more to insure than most other cars.

Maxima engine in a fully loaded sedan

This car is so quick and fun to drive. Zero to 60 in 6.9 seconds. The transmission is so smooth. I'm only selling because I need to haul a trailer now.

Well maintained, reliable

Mostly highway miles in commute. No known problems. Full maintenance protocol at 100,000 miles. Can take it to mechanic for examination. Purchased new car, must sell this one.

Altima is Awesome My First Ever New Car

When I bought the car I loved all the amenities, the sunroof, the sleek style and the way it sounds like an airplane, the push button is easy and I like the exterior lock button on the doors too. I?m glad I got cloth interior because I had leather before and didn?t like it in the Texas heat. I?ve had no issues work my car and have taken good care of it!

Looks so sporty!

This car met all my needs. It's very sporty, and I love the Bose sound system. It has always been very reliable. It has a very chic feel to it.
