Faults:

Fuel gage, odometer, speedometer and dash lights would fail from time to time after a fused needed to be replaced.

Can be unsafe to control when driven on snowy or slick roads in bad weather.

This was my very first car. I bought an 2000 GXE in 2005.

The car was immaculate when I bought it at 56K. It used to be a rental in it's former life -- it looked SOOO good that the back seats looked like they weren't even sat in.

I heard GOOD things about Nissan and the ALTIMA GXE was in my budget. When I rode around in this car I barely put any miles on it each year.

It never gave me any probs until I stored in my garage for a few months. After I took it out, only thing that need changing was the battery and a fuse -- aside from that, it was always reliable. I wish I could've treated it better.

Quiet car, firm ride with an athletic feel, but a little disappointed with the handling. All I really would've changed was that the interior room could've been bigger--I'm 6ft tall and need that leg room.

I'm getting a 02 MITSUBISHI GALANT ES because I need a change, it's bigger and the car fits more of my personality... but I'll NEVER forget the good times I had with my ALTIMA.

Overall this car makes an IDEAL first car for any driver.

Faults:

When I bought the car it had just over 199,000 miles on it, and need a new radiator, tires, and oil pump, but got it all fixed for under $2500.

The Service Engine Soon light does not turn off, and had it looked over several times by myself and my friend who owns a car shop, and nothing is wrong.

The shift shock on the car is horrible, especially going from first to second and second to first, I can tolerate it though.

Does have several smaller rust spots.

General Comments:

For the amount of miles and wear and tear the car has good power and a very comfortable ride.

I am 6'3" and this car actually provides me with a lot of unexpected room.

At nearly 209,000 miles the car still runs great.

Faults:

The seats make you feel like you are really high up, and they are very hard as well, not soft like my other cars.

General Comments:

For a 4 cylinder, this car is great, drives nice, and smooth.

Quiet engine, good car for the winter as well. great first car for a student or a new driver.

Well..lets see. When I first got my Altima, one day I started it and the engine started shaking back and forth.. it hasn't done that since. Then my driver and passenger side windows quit rolling down and I had to replace the switches and the motors. One day I was driving down the interstate at 70mph during rush hour and the engine stopped. The dealer said it was due to a rod or gasket and sludge in the engine. I replaced the engine with a used one and now when I start my car it makes this loud screeching noise until the car warms up. It only makes that noise when it is cold outside. Oh, and I have a power steering leak.
