CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2005 Nissan Altima has two fairly significant problems with the floor pan rusting through & motor mounts breaking.
Altima owners report that up to a basketball-size hole develops under the floor mats where the floor pan metal rusts through. Average repair cost is over $1,000.
The broken motor mounts are less of a problem - they break at ~75,000 miles average & it's $400 to fix. Still, motor mounts should not break!
I think the plastic on the hood was to defer bugs and prevent rust, but I think it did the opposite. Looks like hell!I also believe that this was the only year that the plastic was applied. Can anyone confirm?
