"Nice looks, Crappy Manufacture"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Less than 500 miles and problem one started needs NEW transmission.

Noticed vibration as soon as I got it off the lot took back to get the it looked at. received that we have problems phone call and I wouldn't get it back for a week. they said it was the valve body of the transmission. well we will find out what kinda car this is cause its my first Nissan and so far I'm NOT IMPRESSED!!!

General comments?

Car is very plush love the body lines and interior!!!

My very first brand new car had 2 miles when bought a week ago I hope to god this is just a manufacture DEFECT and not a sign of trouble to come.

I bought my Altima 2.5S in August 2006. So far I've had two transmissions replaced, both before even hitting 2000 miles. You will replace it again they told me. The same stupid story about the valve body, and within a week of having it back, it failed again.

Now have 10000+ miles and the transmission is acting up again. Wish I wasn't so upside down in it or I'd get RID OF IT. Thank god for extended warranty's.

Only have 58,000 plus miles on my car. The Electronic Computer Module(the computer engine) went out. They've replace it twice in two weeks and still having problems. This car is certainly not as good as my 1996 Altima.
