problem #1

Altima SV 2.5L

  • CVT transmission
  • 60 miles

We have notified Nissan and they told us they rely on their dealer network to take car of any problems.The first dealer(Peoria Nissan) sluffed us off completely.Yesterday the selling dealer did a two hour inspection of

the car and said they could find no reason for the bad odor. The Service advisor admitted that he had the

complaints from other 2013 Altima owners and it is worse during hot weather. Hey, yesterday it was 109

here in Phoenix. My diagnosis is COOLANT, but the dealer did a pressure check on the system and it was

not leaking. Our garage stinks when the car is inside. Remove the car and no odor! Does anyone know what we can do?
