problem #8

Dec 012014

Altima SL

  • Automatic transmission
  • 15,000 miles

It annoys me every time I open the console. I keep telling myself to report it when I take my car in, but I forget until I try to open it. What a pain! Something that should take one hand, takes two to open.

Altima 3.5S V6

  • CVT transmission
  • 1 miles

Center console latch doesn't work properly. It doesn't catch the top tray like it was designed to. Not fixed yet, I've had this car to the dealership 5 times in a year for its chronic issues, and I just haven't gotten to having them fix this problem yet.

problem #3

Feb 012013

Altima S 2.5L

  • CVT transmission

Console latch is supposed to open up to the top or bottom compartment depending which side you depress. Both sides will only give acces to the top compartment unless the latches are forced to separate.
