| Description of the problem | My 2008 nissan altima had squeaky brakes for months before dealership would admit there was a problem. First time i took car in about brakes was told that the brakes sometimes make a noise nothing to worry about. Second time they told me they had to replace the brakes and both calipers on front. Everything was fixed according to the service bulletin. I've noticed that my transmission makes a whinny noise when driving up grades. Took it in and was told they couldn't duplicate the reported problem. Go figure.. I wish someone would do us all a favor and recall this vehicle. Please! We all have been ripped off by nissan! Car has had too many problems from day one! Regret buying it!! |
