CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2013 Nissan Altima has multiple problem trends including the CVT transmission, and now that this model is out of warranty, it earns our "Avoid Like The Plague" badge.
Owners complain about vibration and transmission failure related to the CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), a whining noise from the power steering pump, and constant windshield problems that appear to be the result of poor design.
Be warned: the 2014 & 2015 Nissan Altima appears to share these same problems.

I bought the car in Oct. 2018 and had transmission problems by the following month (Nov. 2018). I had bought this car because I needed a reliable car and then this happened. I had to borrow money from family to get it fix so that I could go to work. Very expensive to get fixed - it was around $3800.00, plus I had just registered the car which registration cost was $1200.00 overall. Just in the first month of having this car I spent over $5000.00. I decided to buy this car because of their great reviews and this happened!
