  Good Transportation - 2001 Nissan Altima
  By Careyd - May 26 - 10:00 am

  Bought used in March 04 when forced to become a courier due to being laid off. Was local rental with 41k miles. I only had $10k and had to find something reliable, low mileage, relatively safe and economical. The Camry and Accord were over my budget and the Altima seemed to fit the bill. After 38k miles in 5 months (thats right!) I have been mostly satisfied. I did have to replaced the alternator ($340 changed it out myself) but only maintenance items besides that. I drive an average of 10 hours a day so comfort is important, and I have been pleasantly surprised by the seat comfort. (I am a big guy!) Actually roomier up front than other cars.

  A VERY Safe Car, Looking for another! - 2001 Nissan Altima
  By GLSC - April 4 - 2:00 am

  I loved this car, but recently I was involved in a head-on crash with a drunk driver and I was able to walk away from the accident. My Altima was totaled, but it did exactly what it was supposed to do. I had plenty of room for my feet during the crash. The car just absorbed the impact and broke away, but the inside of the car was for the most part in tacked! As soon as I got out of the car I told my husband I wanted another one EXACTLY like it. I never had any problems with it, air worked great, seats were comfy, heat worked great, didnt make any noises when it ran.

  Great Practical Car - 2001 Nissan Altima
  By jmdineen - February 26 - 2:00 am

  This car has a lot of room for its size. I have had no problems with it at all, and it has over 26k miles. It is great on the open road (a little stiff maybe) but also handles two lane roads with lots of curves with ease. Fuel milage isnt great but not bad.

  I bought my Altima new in July 01 and have had no problems at all with the car. Rides good, plenty of room, fun to drive and has plenty of pick up for a 4 cylinder. I owned a Honda Civic prior to this and the civic could not even compare to this beauty.

  Good car, but have concerns - 2001 Nissan Altima
  By Melinda Gibbs - January 15 - 6:43 am

  Ive noticed in the other reviews that only one person complained that during wet weather hard braking causes the rear end to swing out...its quite scary. I had 2 new rear tires put on the back today maybe that will help. It has done it to me about 6 different times in wet weather, almost hit another car a few times...not good. Hub cabs rattle all the time. Dealership cant fix them. Had trouble with power windows...all fixed under warranty. I really like my Altima, but Im very nervous about driving in wet weather.

  Old Reliable - 2001 Nissan Altima
  By gotaku - January 12 - 8:50 am

  Traded it in on a new 08 Altima last week. My 01 played a large role in my deciding to stay with Nissan. If youre looking for a rock-solid, reliable, and fun to drive used sedan, the Altima SE is one of the best. No major problems, just some small niggles (described below), every car has them. Very comfortable, fuel efficient (30 mpg on the highway, at least), great around town and for long-distance cruising. If you enjoy the act of driving, dont bother with the GXE or GLE... the SE is the way to go. It may not be the quickest in a straight line, but itll surprise you in the twisties. Overall, I was very happy with the car, kinda hated to see it go. Highly recommended.

  By stickywickett - November 4 - 2:00 am

  Purchased in 2001 and have had absolutely zero problems!! Its been one of the most reliable cars Ive had (so far 32,000 miles). Handles great, even in the snow/rain. Great value for the money, too.

  By cockychest - August 3 - 10:00 am

  Bought the GXE Limited Editon in October 2000 brand new. Has been a very reliable car and have always trusted Nissan products. I presently have over 21000 miles with no problem to report. Easy to keep up and is a beautiful car after it is cleaned.
