About this model

2017 Nissan Altima

Середньорозмірний седан · generation 2013–2024

Our takeНайдешевший спосіб отримати mid-size sedan з США. Але обов'язково перевіряйте CVT перед покупкою — найкраще брати лоти з пробігом до 150 000 км або з документами про заміну варіатора.

Strengths

Найдешевший в сегменті mid-size — багато лотів на Copart по $3–7k
Двигун 2.5L QR25DE — простий, без турбо, ремонтопридатний
Просторий салон, м'яка підвіска під українські дороги

Weaknesses

CVT варіатор JF017E — слабке місце, типова заміна $3 000+ після 150 000 км
Інтер'єр з дешевого пластику до 2019

Official recalls

Structure
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Altima vehicles, previously remedied under recall number 17V-040. The door latch-lock cable may not have been routed properly in the rear door when the remedy was applied. As a result, the cable may interfere with the window regulator causing the rear passenger door to unlatch and inadvertently open without warning when the window is lowered.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will secure the latch-lock cables in the correct position using the new remedy procedure, free of charge. The recall began February 5, 2019. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7669.
