Cabanna 
1997 Nissan Altima Sedan SE 4dr Sedan (1997.5)
Solid Car
 I bought my Altima used in 2001 with 
51,000 miles and I haven't had any 
major problems with it since besides 
normal upkeep and wear and tear. I'm 
satisfied with this car for the most 
part. My complaint is that the Altima 
does shift a little hard. I took it to 
the mechanic and he told me that the 
transmission was okay though and that 
this version of the Altima tends to do 
that. The other thing I noticed is the 
brakes squeel when the car hasn't ran 
for a while, but as soon as the car 
warms up the squeeling stops. I did 
have this problem looked at as well 
and I was told this was okay for now.
