2001 Nissan Altima GXE review from North America
"Reliable car, but local dealer questionable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Wind noise at highway speed around front drivers and passengers windows.
Took to dealer (where I bought it) who did nothing except to inform me that the cause of the noise was the mirrors!! Give me a break.
Rear carpet came apart from under the door panel.
Rough riding on all, but the smoothest of roads.
Uses more gas than one would expect for a 4 cylinder.
Other than that the thing is bulletproof!
General comments?
Excellent car overall, good for someone who just wants a car with low maintenance.
Put over 90,000kms on it with the original brakes, exhaust, front end, even lights.
Good power and never uses oil.
Highly recommend the car.
Dealer service not the best. They even called me just before the warranty ran out, but still refused to deal with the cabin noise! Maybe it's a common problem.
