problem #2

Altima Special Edition 2.5L

This is my 4th Nissan Altima and feel my 2015 Altima is the only one with multiple issues! This Altima is cheaply made! I normally enjoy listening to music in the car. Now I get to listen to static no matter what station, CD or Sirius XM on. I should be excited about having a brand new car, but in this situation I rather be driving my 2004 Mazda.

problem #1

Altima SL 3.5L V6

  • CVT transmission
  • 556 miles

I've only had this car about 2 and a half weeks and last night I got in the car and found that there was no sound coming from the speakers. I tried listening to the FM and AM radio, Sirius XM, a CD and music on my phone, but no matter what I did, no sound would come from the speakers. I turned the volume up and down, and I turned the stereo and the entire car on and off - no difference. I've never had this problem before on any car I've ever owned, let alone before I've even driven 1,000 miles.

Also, this issue renders the lane departure warning obsolete as the car has no way of telling you that you're drifting out of your lane.
