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.

This noise is very bad and trying to find the parts to replace it is very difficult. Mechanic says the bushings have cracked and need to be replaced. I’ve already had to apply front control arms.
Update from Mar 20, 2019: I’ve already had to replace front control arms because of bad bushings.
