Vinyl siding should not have to have nails. Each panel interlocks with the previous panel. But, if yours is nailed on and that’s how you have to fix it try either screws or these types of nails. Either “Ring Shank” nails or Spiral Shank nails.
They have greqat holding power and are designed to go in but not come out.

For attaching to surfacethis will allow for ease of installation or roofing nails are acceptable good luck.
For expansion retraction siding has slotted areas at top for ease of installation or roofing nails are acceptable good luck.
