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.
Front brake rotors have excessive run out. Dealer wants to machine rotors to correct problem. Claims TSB from Nissan only allows machining. Removing more material from the rotor only makes the lifetime of the rotor reduced giving more problems later. They claim this is a wear problem. It is not. It is a defect. Rotors should not distort under normal driving conditions.
