Nissan Altima

This is one of the best cars I have ever owned. It has been consistently dependable for well over 100,000 miles, and I will most likely highly consider buying another when the time comes. I had heard in the past that the 2012 was an excellent car, and so far it has lived up to my expectations.

She Deals with me

I love her. She's comfortable and reliable, as long as I take care of her. Sometimes, even when I don't take care of her she runs. I have had 2 cars before this one that were a lot newer that broke down on me quite a bit. She's a sweet ride!

My 2012 Nissan Altima is probably all things taken in account is the best car I have ever owned.

We took that car across country last year we traveled 3100 miles,we didn't have one ounce of trouble.The car delivers decent gas mileage and surprising performance for a large 4 door sedan, I would buy another one.

Great and reliable vehicle.

This car is the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. Even with 143,000 miles on it, all I’ve had to do is routine maintenance. Other than when it was sideswiped in a hit and run but that doesn’t take anything away from the car. The transmission had to be replaced at 94,000 but that was probably because of the way I drove it. Still, I never worry about getting stranded anywhere.

Excellent Car. Look nowhere else.

This is the most reliable car i have ever had as well as it being peppy and very good in snow. Very little issues in the 6 years i have owned it. Now that i live out in the country i would prefer a higher undercarriage so if i did purchase, it would be a nissan suv.

Love this car. ❤ I've taken many trips to NYC, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey and have never had to worry about the performance of my car. Good upkeep is a must. I'll always purchase a Nissan.

2013 Nissan

I bought this vehicle when I retired. I always had a big auto for hauling around grandchildren, baby seats and groceries. I wanted something that was a reasonable size for parallel parking and getting into tight spaces in parking garages, but had some space for a few passengers and a reasonable sized trunk for travel. I drive from San Diego up to the Bay Area and to the Sierras and needed a vehicle that could manage maneuvering the LA freeway , SF city traffic and take mountain and seaside curves. I also wanted reasonable comfort and fuel efficiency. For myself, this vehicle has met these requirements.

Excellent

156k miles and still runs perfect on original motor. I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a sedan. Very good gas mileage and very dependable. Very comfortable for long drives. Good price for a full size sedan.

Great car for the money!

I purchased my altima 3.5 SR used With 23k on her. I have just over 61.5k on and have done general maintenance,tires,brakes,rotors,oil changes. Front driver side wheel bearing needed to be replaced at 60k. That's it in the 6 years I have been driving her. She still drives like a new car. This is the 2nd Nissan I have owned. I have been considering an suv which would certainly be a Nissan, I am just having a tough time with the thought of selling my reliable girl!

A have had this automobile since it hit the showroom in 2012. I liked it then and I LOVE it 10 years later and that’s putting it mildly. This is the best car I could have asked for. It wasn’t until this year that anything ever went wrong with it because I always did what the maker’s suggested and that’s let the maker take care of it.

I love this automobile period. I bought it as a demo with limited miles. I loved the color (beautiful platinum) and it looked so classy. I have never had a problem with this car until this year but it’s 10 years old. I’ve always taken it back to the Nissan dealership for any work needed and believe me it’s has cost me very little. I couldn’t have gotten a better vehicle. Looks good and rides good ????

All around solid vehicle. Fun to drive.

A good looking fun to drive car. Only issues are the lack of top notch materials and manufacturing. The sun roof fell out and the driver side mirror collected moisture and signal stopped working (fixed under factory warranty). Now the passenger side is doing the same not covered under warranty anymore. Just over three years and less that 30k miles all four tires need to be replaced and the battery terminals are corroded (the car is parked in a garage nightly). Bluetooth is great but doesn't connect all the time.

I love my Nissan Altima

After having my car for almost a year I have grown to love it. The grill of the car looks kind of weird but that's probably one of the only things I dislike about the car. I have not had any mechanical problems thus far. There have been a few recalls on the car which have been taken care of promptly. I love the way the car rides as I do ALOT of driving and it is very good on gas. I do wish the stereo system was better quality but that is a minor thing. Overall I love the car, good gas mileage, smooth ride and very comfortable.

Impressive Reliability

I've had my 2012 Nissan Altima 2.5S for about 4-5 yrs. now and I haven't had any major problems. Normal wear and tear maintenance is the only thing I've had to experience. Great on MPG and roomy enough for my 6'4, 330lb. frame. The only drawback is that the engine should have more power for the 2.5S. I'm thinking about purchasing a pickup truck in the near future. Most likely it will be a Nissan, because of the dependability I've had with my Altima.

2012 Nissan Altima

I have 35k on it. It is reliable with very little mechanical problems. Always use a good house for mechanical work. The only major flaw that I feel is the comfort of the driver and passenger seats. You are too low to the ground whereby you have to drop into the seat vs sliding in. The same holds true on exiting. You have to stand and push up to get out of the seat. The seats are not real comfortable when driving

Nissan coup

Great little car. Handles well. Not much of a back seat but we have a bigger car if we have passengers. I think you have to accept the space issue when you buy a car such as this. It’s a great get around car for someone who doesn’t drive a lot.
