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.

It's obvious that Nissan knows about their bad transmissions. After mine went out, I contacted Nissan and they indicated they only applied and extended warranty on transmissions from 2003-2010. Why wouldn't they work on fixing the problem. From research, it appears that this is an ongoing issue!
