| | Full Test: 2002 Nissan Altima (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) |
 | | The Altima crashed over sharp bumps, and when traveling over lumpy pavement at high speed, one driver called the car "skittish." Still, we all agreed that the Altima was more fun to drive hard than the Maxima. |
 | | One safety item missing from the Altima is stability control, odd since the car invites the driver to explore its substantial limits with every turn of the wheel. |
 | | The lower right dash panel was loose and poorly aligned, we found the finish inside the passenger door pull to be chipped, the center console wiggled and waggled quite easily, the front door armrest inserts were unevenly assembled, and we felt that center stack panel fit on the lower passenger side was sloppy. |
