2003 Nissan Altima review from North America
"Better than a ford Taurus I previously owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've had intermittent, no starts similar to the comments of others. I'm in agreement that there is some common problem with the 2003 Altimas.
I'm now investigating the check engine light. It may be a coincidence, but it seemed to come on when the ethanol was added to the gas.
General comments?
It is a commuter car that I plan to run into the ground.
