Let me start by saying I like my car. When I was stationed in Korea my wife surprised me by buying me a 2013 Altima SV. Not the bad a** muscle I'm use too but I love the car. Drove it to N. Carolina from Texas and had no problem. 3 weeks after being in N. Carolina my check engine light comes on. WTF I have work on cars since I was 16 now 27 and have never had a new car pull this. Read the code and its a P0101 MAF. Ok so I know it could be the air filter but knowing my luck it's the Mass Air Flow sensor why would this happen to a new car?

Welcome to NICO, Fireface! Sorry no one responded to your question very quickly. We're restructuring the Altima section and things are a bit disorganized at the moment.

Did you ever get your issue fixed with your Altima?

I've not seen that code come up before, and I'm on a couple forums, so it doesn't seem to be common on the 5th Generation. Like recommended, take it to the dealer, should be covered under warranty.
