problem #2

Altima 2.5L S

  • CVT transmission
  • 50,000 miles

The locks don't open with the keyless entry - except for the passenger door. So, to get in my car, I need to open that one, lean in to manually open the driver side and walk around. Ugggh. In the rain and snow in Utah it is not good. Also, when locking from inside, all the locks won't autolock. I have to manually lock my driver side and driver back door. This is not fun and I really hope it doesn't cost a lot to fix. Going on 6 months and haven't dared to take it in due to budget.

Altima S 2.5L

  • CVT transmission
  • 57,000 miles

Bought this car 1 year ago. It has 57k miles on it. The driver door locks quit locking. Last week both rear door locks started to mess up. Sometimes they lock, sometimes they unlock. This was not a fun job to replace. It took 2 hours and 2 people.
