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!
Transmission seems to slip going in cruise around 50-60 miles hour. Its not real hard but very light but you can feel it. It varies at times. It kinda ticks me off because shouldn't be doing this crap at 44,000 miles. We are going to get it checked out by dealer. luckily we got a extended warranty when we bought it.
