2. Nissan Altima
Starting MSRP: $24,300
This midsize sedan is known for its advanced safety features, reliable performance, and comfortable interior. However, some car experts believe that some models have questionable reliability, while others say that the Nissan Altima is one of the least reliable cars.
Specifically, the continuously variable transmission found in many Altimas has a tendency to display premature failure, frequently occurring shortly after surpassing the 100,000-mile mark. This particular issue can lead to expensive repairs, experts point out.
According to them, the worst model years include 2003, 2009, 2013, 2016, and 2019. These vehicles should be avoided due to powertrain, engine, and electrical issues.

I always buy Toyota/Lexus and I always will
Common theme here is automatic transmissions of any form are garbage. It is a constant weak spot for many brands and models. For years. I don’t know why people insist on buying automatics and putting up with expensive repairs, down time and short vehicle life. It’s time to go back to manual transmissions. People need to be a little less lazy. But if you absolutely insist to have your $tarbucks$ beverage or text, then an automatic provides a little easier (but not safer) way to multitask while driving. But the definition of insanity is repeating something over and over expecting a different result. The news here is continue to expect problems and large repair costs for choosing an automatic transmission. And don’t get me started on EV’s that don’t have transmissions. That’s another foolish choice.
my hyundai accent was a piece of crap and so wasn’t their warranty
