    I bought my Nissan Altima Sport Coupe 3.5 brand new in 2008 and I've never had any issues with it. I've had 4 brand new cars since that time as second/third car and they've all had issues at some point or another. My Nissan is my most reliable car that I have. I do all of my own maintenance on it and it hasn't blown up yet. Hopefully others have had the same experience.
    EDIT: Was involved in an accident last week (4/16/2024) a drunk lady T-boned my car running a red light and totaled it. I'm devastated about it however, I had 16 good years with that car. Just bought a 2002 Toyota Camry with 92,000 miles in excellent condition for $4,800. Will always miss my Altima RIP...

It had been involved in an accident, and was missing a headlight and a fender, but the junkyard supplied both to me when I bought the car! It seems to be really tough! Both the engine and trans at 190,000, but it could be a rare circumstance, but I paid so little for it, that I think I could have the trans rebuilt if I had to. It seems to be a fun little car!

    I have a 2011 Nissan Altima 2.5 S and never have any problems, It's very reliable. It runs quiet, no creaks, the CVT transmission is very good. I still get 23 miles in the city and 29 on the highway. It still has a new car feel. I plan to keep it for another 10 years. I wouldn't trade it in for a new Tesla. I have never seen a Tesla driver smiling at a charging station. Only on you tube! __ It's rather amusing that those people "who don't know how to drive" consider themselves to authorities on cars.

    I have a 2010 Altima Coupe 2.5 S w/31K that I bought new. Over the last year , it’s started having all sorts of random problems. Right now, I am unable to drive it because of loud grinding, scraping sound when I make a turn. I post a video of this sound on my channel. It kinda sounds like I’ve gone thru the brake pad & into the rotors. But I had the brakes checked earlier this year and 70% of the pad was left. Unrelated issues - on my 3rd battery since purchased, car smells like acetone when driving during the summer, dash is extremely sticky because it has a melting dash. This car is very rarely parked in the sun as I work from home & even grocery shop at night, it won’t accelerate after making a hard fast stop, the max AC button no longer works, knobs on the radio no longer work (controls on the steering wheel work just fine), driver side window stops working during cold weather, and the center brake light in the back window & spoiler brake light stopped working - it won’t pass inspection due to this. Again, this car only has 31K miles on it. I would expect dry rot or rusting of parts after 12 years. All of these other problems???

      Take care of it and don’t drive it like a race car, you’ll be okay. Most these Altima drivers drive their cars like they stole it.

      Not necessarily a CVT transmission only has one gear that's a single speed that's shiftless. Which is you cannot be rough on it because it will not last versus a traditional automatic transmission my uncle's 2012 Toyota 4Runner is pushing 387,000 miles with no engine or transmission issues still running strong a Nissan probably won't even reach that Toyota's are known for being very very reliable more reliable than Nissan

      Change the transmission oil every 25k to 30k. Make sure you use the correct oil and you should be fine. Just keep up the maintenence. Also, make sure you let the transmission warm up before driving. Don't drive it cold. I have a 09 Altima.
