Anyone actually have good service from a late model Nissan with CVT?

202,225 in a 2012 Altima 2.5
No idea if or when the CVT was ever serviced.

Edit: this is my cousin's personal vehicle, his business vehicle that I usually drive is a 13 Malibu with 192k on the clock. I can't believe I'm saying this, but the Nissan feels like it held up better than the Chevy.

Based on what I heard, the Jatco belt CVT has reliability problem and the chain one is more durable. Most of the problem comes from flooring the gas pedal from stop causing slippage. If I have to buy a CVT, the Toyota one with first gear is the one I'd trust (other than the hybrid eCVT).

Other corner cuttings on Nissan are my concern as well.
