A component is listed below if NHTSA records a vehicle recall campaign, a manufacturer warranty extension or service campaign, or at least 10 distinct consumer complaints.
Recall campaigns
NHTSA lists these campaigns as covering certain 2018 NISSAN ALTIMA vehicles. One campaign can list several components, so these do not sum to the 2 vehicle campaigns on record.
- Latches/Locks/Linkages1 campaign12 distinct complaints
- Back Over Prevention1 campaignno complaint count above OAV’s minimum of 10
Federal law requires the manufacturer to remedy a safety recall at no cost to the owner — by repair, replacement or refund — for vehicles not more than 15 years old on the date the defect was determined.
Parts are sometimes on back-order and some remedies are interim, so a dealer may not be able to complete the work immediately. A specific vehicle’s current recall status is available through NHTSA’s VIN recall lookup.

These records describe the 2018 model-year, not any individual vehicle, and are not an inspection. One complaint can be recorded against more than one component, so counts do not sum to the model-year total. Service records for any component listed here are worth requesting from the seller.

Analysis powered by OAV's patented inventory standardization technology (U.S. Patent No. 12,236,477). Verdict methodology ptm-verdict-v1 · snapshot Sep 17, 2026. The patented comparable band is the input; ptm-verdict-v1 is the versioned OAV rule set that turns it into this verdict.
Market context
This listing is part of OAV's broader Leesburg, VA sedans market analysis. OAV compares vehicles by local and regional price-to-market ranges and comparable count; days-on-lot and demand signals are shown separately, not as verdict inputs.
How this deal is rated
OAV compares this 2018 Nissan Altima against similar vehicles currently available for sale — same make, model, and year range, using trim where the data supports it. OAV does not adjust comparable prices for mileage; on used vehicles it withholds a verdict when mileage would distort the comparison — very high or unreliable mileage, or a lower price better explained by higher-than-typical mileage than by a genuine market discount — rather than overstate a deal. Based on where this listing falls in that comparable set, it is rated:
- Great Deal — priced below the comparable-range floor by a meaningful margin (OAV's minimum-gap rule); a listing below the floor by less than that margin is Fair Price.
- Fair Price — priced within the expected range for comparable vehicles.
- Overpriced — priced above the typical range for comparable vehicles.
Listings show OAV's PTM-derived deal quality and live market context. OAV-claimed dealers manage their listing profile and route buyer inquiries directly. Paid OAV partners can surface additional verification signals, but commercial participation never changes a listing's Price-to-Market verdict, eligibility, ranking, or confidence.
