Altima S 2.5L

  • CVT transmission
  • 29,216 miles

I got the car in November 2014 and you mean to tell me I had oil leaking already? FOH! They applied new sealer to the oil pan and were not trying to extend my warranty. There's no excuse for this I was so mad!! Already had so many issues with this f*ck boy. Already dealt with the seat cloth not connected to the seat frame, brake pedal cover coming off, bluetooth blacking out and not working, lights dimming when I turn the steering wheel, battery corroding, transmission jerking when I drive the car for a while and come to a stop, or when I come to a stop coming down a hill etc...

Altima SL 3.5L

  • CVT transmission
  • 6,487 miles

Noticed oil accumulated inside passenger side rim. Five days later, vehicle stalls on highway while driving to Jones / Belair Nissan. Checked under hood, oil all over passenger side of engine, serpentine belt shredded (brand new 6487 miles). Towed to dealership and repaired. Now, a little over 3 weeks, noticed passenger side tire so checked under hood. Oil all over passenger side of engine. Returning to dealer for service before serpentine belt shreds again and I'm stranded. Also involved Nissan Consumer Affairs when the incident first occurred. They are purposely worthless, but I already knew that from the previous Nissan, which was the second one purchased new. This one's the third. Some people never learn...
