CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2016 Nissan Altima shows multiple problem trends, continuing the poor reputation of the 2013-2015 Altima, prompting us to give it our "Beware of the Clunker" badge.
BEWARE OF 2016 NISSAN ALTIMA SV WITH NAVIGATION OPTION.
Anyone that purchases a 2016 Altima SV with Navigation option will have this issue. There are two radios for the Altima SV, one for cars with No Navigation option and one WITH the Navigation option. Any Altima SV with the Navigation option for the car the radio will not pick up stations clearly in the upper frequencies, Any frequencies above 1003 FM will not be received clearly, they are barely understandable with static and breaking up.
I contacted the Nissan Consumer Affairs Department and they confirmed that the SV model does have two different radios and they consider this issue 'NORMAL' and will not do anything about it.they stated that in the future they may have a software update for the radio.
