Drivers Seat Motor Failure

CarComplaints.com Seal Of Avoid Like The Plague

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.

Owners complain about vibration and transmission failure related to the CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), a whining noise from the power steering pump, and constant windshield problems that appear to be the result of poor design.

Be warned: the 2014 & 2015 Nissan Altima appears to share these same problems.

2013 Nissan Altima Owner Comments

problem #1

Altima SV 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 44,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

The motor to back of drivers seat burned out in the reclined position put there to vacuum. I’m the only driver, so that motor gets used only several times annually. Cleaning, because of winter to accommodate coats, and spring/summer no coats.

Nissan provides no assistance for such a costly and ridiculous repair. What an absolutely sh*t design. Really really poor poor Nissan customer service!
