2007 Nissan Altima S review from North America
"Overall a great car should have waited for 2008"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rattle from engine area on cold start up. Seats not finshed at factory - coming apart Chips in paint.
General comments?
I love my car wish I bought the SL package with leather as I don't like the cloth arm rests on door and console. It gets dirty easily. I like CVT transmission, but the 4 cyl is a little loud. My main complaint is a rattling from the engine on startup. I returned to dealer to fix problems and they told me this was because of an aftermarket oil filter that I used during an oil change (? yeah right) Because it has done this since day one with a Nissan oil filter and now with the Nissan oil filter they installed. I have seen several comments on the internet with the same described problem as mine. Brakes are already starting to squeak - I do have a long commute each day to work 100 miles daily so maybe they are just wore out? Who knows?
