Air Bags

WHEN WE WERE TAUGHT HOW TO DRIVE WE WERE TOLD TO PLACE OUR HANDS AT THE 10 AND 2 O'CLOCK POSITION ON THE STEERING WHEEL. IF THAT IS WHERE YOUR HANDS ARE AT THE DEPLOYMENT OF AN AIRBAG IT THROWS YOUR LEFT ARM AGAINST THE WINDSHIELD AND IT'S FRAME WHICH RESULTS IN BROKEN ARMS AND WRISTS. I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A WARNING FOR THIS. *TR

MY ALTIMA IDLES VERY ROUGH, WHICH FEELS AS IF IT WERE ABOUT TO STALL. IT SHAKES THE WHOLE CAR AND IS SLOW AND SHAKING DURING ACCELERATION. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS A MISFIRE IN CYL #4. ON THE INTERNET, EVERYONE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET. I READ THIS WAS A DESIGN FLAW BY NISSAN AND THAT THEY ACKNOWLEDGED IT, BUT REFUSE TO FIX IT. I NOW HAVE TO PAY A REPAIR SHOP TO FIX NISSAN'S PROBLEM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE SOON LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE WOULD ONLY ACCEPT HALF TO THREE QUARTERS OF A TANK OF FUEL. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE FUEL FILTER TUBE WAS RUSTED AND WOULD NOT ALLOW THE FUEL TANK TO BE FILLED, WITHOUT FUEL ESCAPING FROM THE TANK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL ON THE SAME COMPONENT OF OTHER NISSAN VEHICLES EXCEPT HIS, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAILURE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 80,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000. *UPDATED 12/27/07 *LJ
