I purchased my certified-preowned 2023 Nissan Altima on 12/9/2023 at 800+ miles. I did test drive it before my purchase, however I did not notice the defect in the driver and passenger side windows until my 45 minute drive home. The windows are defective and distorted my vision causing eye strain and dizziness.

My car is brand new. It doesn't thave 2k Miles on it. My issue is with the radio- satellite radio system. As of today I was driving my vehicle normally and listening to satellite radio. All of a sudden I heard what sounded like a big bang thru my speakers. For a second I thought I got hit. I didn't get hit. A very loud bang of volume came through my speakers for an I nstent and stopped. Third time now since I bought it. Don't know what it is. However, as far as I'm concerned it is a safety problem. I jerked the car and was very distracted. My ears actually rang it was so loud. Please investigate

I have just bought Nissan Altima SL 2023 - and it has issues with a Faulty backup camera, It's resolution is way too bright, and there is no way to set it up through the settings - I have asked dealer Support for it, and they showed me other 3 Cars having the same issue, and they said they could not fix it as the company has manufactured it - At night, it is hazardous to use the backup camera as the driver is not able to see what is behind just because the camera is reflecting the light and the display is too bright, like a flash - I have Nissan Pathfinder 23 and Nissan Altima 2023, and both cars does not have this kind of issue - Nissan is supposed to fix it ASAP as the backup camera is useless and very hazardous.
