CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2015 Nissan Altima shows multiple problem trends, continuing the poor reputation of the 2013 & 2014 Altima, prompting us to give it our "Beware of the Clunker" badge.
Nissan keeps changing batteries even sends some packs home with me. My car has been running for the last 2 days because now the new battery dont even temporary make it work. So now they are saying i have a bigger problem than a battery and they will check it out today at 3. So if new keys are 300 a piece I'm going to hate the bill they give me today. Keep you updated...
Update from Mar 9, 2019: Update... So dealership informed me key fob just stop working. No broken components, no traces of water/dirt or moisture inside and even no neglect of my own because it was just stopped working ( which to me that is faulty equipment on there end!!!) I had to pay $416.66 for a new key which is completely outright robbery, but have to pay so I can drive the car. No manufacture warranty or my real expensive unlimited bumper to bumper warranty covers the cost due to its not attached to my car to count as a electrical failure. I feel like if the key had an electrical failure due to my neglect then it shouldn't be covered. The reason i bought the warranty is to protect me for faulty equipment i know electric parts can stop working at anytime and i would have been perfectly fine with paying my $100.00 deductible.
There have been at least two separate occasions when the remote start on the car was inoperable. One was a rainy day. The other was a really cold day. The problem was always resolved by the next day. I'm just logging it as a sign of what's to come. Additionally, there has been at least one occasion when the key fob would not unlock the trunk. I had to do so from inside.
