Common problems and easy repairs on a 2016 Altima
The 2016 Nissan Altima SL is a difficult car to maintain. The headlights have very cumbersome access, requiring the wheel well lining, portions underneath the vehicle, and/or the bumper and the entire bulb housing to be removed, which doesn’t allow for reliable changes at all. The cabin air filter is located in a cramped position, so removing it may prove to be a problem. Monitoring your transmission fluid may be difficult, as manufacturers neglected to include a dipstick with the reservoir itself.
However, the 2016 Nissan Altima SL has its upsides. Connecting your phone via Bluetooth shouldn’t be a problem, as the touchscreen menu provides clear and simple instructions for doing so. The spare tire and jack kit are quick to find and easy to set up, allowing you to fix your flat in a flash. No tools are needed to remove the engine air filters, allowing them to be reliably changed.
