I got a 2013 Altima... it’s at 170k miles and never had any mechanical issues. It’s all anecdotal but my experience was good
When I had my Altima, I used michelin primacy 4 which was very good, made the ride comfortable and quite.
My 2005 Altima used to eat alternators. The first and second replacement were rebuilds or aftermarket, I don't remember the order. I finally paid for an OEM and that one lasted until I sold the vehicle a few years later. This is one of those parts that is better to stick with OEM replacements.
About 8 years ago I replaced the OEM struts on my Nissan Altima with KYB. They were still pretty tight (with no apparent leaks) when I got rid of the car about 5 years and 85,000 miles later. Granted, that mileage was probably 90% commuting on SoCal highways.
Installed new plugs. Probably took 30 minutes - very simple - thanks Nissan! The original plugs which I am embarrassed to say went 123K miles came out very easy so I saw no need.
So I grab a new ignition coil, and a full set (4) of spark plugs. The Pre-gapped BOSCH Iridium plugs were the same price as OEM platinum, so I figured that's fine for me.
After pulling the plugs, Cylinder 1 plug was definitely eroded. The other 3 plugs looked fine, but I might as well replace the lot. The new Ignition Coil went into Cylinder 1 as well, and I started it up.
Check engine light went off, starts up fine, drives fine, idles fine.
Damn $40/plug, I have a nissan altima 2012 and got the most expensive one at $30CAD/plug NGK iridium laser and it was out of necessity as cheaper ones was out of stock during lockdown.
Nissan still does it. I found it distracting when I borrowed by Father's '14 Altima
