Love my Altima

I have had this car as my daily driver. It is so comfortable and drives so well. The interior is well constructed and comfortable. The engine is smooth and powerful. Gave up Accord for this with no regrets!

The Best Car Ever

I have had this altima for 3 years. I have no had an issue yet but replacing tires and battery which is normal for a vehicle. I wish it had car play in the Altima S.. other than that it is a great vehicle.

Decent car

Overall it's a decent car.The engine splash shield literally falls apart or comes loose and hangs down.This is the one thing to look out for.The retainer clips come out.

Very reliable, sporty & clean.

This car is a pleasure to drive. Very roomy, luxury appointments and economical. 26/38 mpg on a run. Premium sound system and high tech features. Must see to appreciate

Great vehicle, nice smooth ride.

has plenty of leg room in front and back, handles very nice, good ride and it's a heavy vehicle. Was purchased for my son, this was a great choice...

Two Blown transmission under 36,000 miles

Never Again. Two blown transmission under 36,000 miles. I will not let me wife drive this car with the kids and now it is upside down so I am trapped. Friends don't let friends drive Nissans.

Best first vehicle

This is the exact car I have been eyeballing for a while and I am definitely satisfied with my new car overall. It has great gas mileage, great interior, and so far runs very well. My sales rep, Gavan at the sabine river ford did a great job at matching my exact needs.

Transmission went out in it already.

Purchased with less than 25,000 miles on it. The Transmission started going out at 65,000 miles. The factory warranty doesn’t cover over 60,000. Wish I would have read the fine print. I thought at least the motor and transmission would be covered to 100,000 miles. Nissan doesn’t want to stand behind their product. Terrible warranty

Great vehicle for the price

The Car meets our needs. Purchased for my Mother. Needed a reliable vehicle and did not want to purchase from an unsavory used car lot. Lot of them around!
