CarComplaints.com Notes: Here's a disturbing trend for the 2002 Nissan Altima: the engine starts burning oil like crazy, the catalytic converter goes bad, the head gasket blows and eventually the entire engine needs replacement. Sound familiar? Like a script from a horror film, these Altimas seem doomed to fail around 95k miles.

about a month ago i spent 2200 on car repair from anti freeze leaking into my head gaskets .. had to get two of them changed,water pump,and a full oil change.. and this was after changing the crankshaft position senor, sparkplugs and battery within two months before that.. now last week my check engine light goes on and comes up o2 sensor or catalytic converter.. very upset over this and does not want to buy another nissan after this.. scary how many other people have the same problems across America u would think Nissan would see this and improve there cars...
