Used Nissan Altimas in New Jersey don’t have suspension problems of newer models

As Nissan gets set to release a press blitz for its 2011 model year Altima, recent cars have experienced suspension problems that could lead buyers towards used Nissan Altimas in New Jersey instead.

The new model will get a variety of appearance upgrades that the company says will offer a more youthful appearance, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says that a design flaw in 2009 and 2010 model year Altimas could cause the front struts to become loosened.

If the vehicle was not immediately repaired, the structural integrity problems caused by the malfunction could lead to a crash, the agency notes.

On the other hand, buyers looking at a used Nissan Altima in New Jersey could enjoy the 2005 model, which has no outstanding recalls issued against it, and has received praise from some reviewers.

“It steers with a rather light touch, is stable on the road and exhibits minimal body lean,” notes a Cars.com review. “Ride comfort is satisfying, and the fully independent suspension deals adeptly with pavement bumps and holes.”
