Problems with 2008 Nissan Altima SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

I have a 2008 nissan altima coupe with 30k miles and the brakes are squeaking nonstop. i took the pad off on all 4 sides and there is plenty of pad left. i sanded the syface of the pad, cleaned the brake assembly and still they squeak non stop. the only time they will not squeak is if i brake super hard. *tr

Drivers seat squirms moves and is not rigid. dealership says they can not replicate the problem. every time i turn the seat makes noise and sounds squirms like its not properly secure. the passenger airbag light also comes on when a fully grown adult is sitting in it. this happens randomly on an average of 4-5 times monthly. when the airbag light comes on the passenger airbag is deactivated not protecting the individual. there is also an issue with the brakes when pressed sometimes the brakes in the front do not grab properly and they grind badly causing the car not to stop as well . the dealership says can not replicate but stated they are aware of these problems and that nissan may issue a recall. for the time being the car is unsafe and nothing is being done about it. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2008 nissan altima. the contact stated that when it rained the brakes locked and caused the vehicle to skid. the brake failure has caused a crash to occur while driving 25 mph. the contact is aware of the safety risk since a crash has occurred. the current mileage was 19,000 and the approximate failure mileage was 0.

I purchased a new 2008 nissan altima in march of 2008, after 2000 miles i heard the brakes start to squeak, i brought it to the dealership for an oil change august 8th and asked them to check the brakes, they did and told me that i needed to have the calipers replaced, i asked if there was a recall and was told no, there is a bulletin though. i thought that other owners should have this problem brought to their attention before the warranty is up and they have to pay for the repair out of pocket. *tr

I would like to report a chronic brake problem i have had with my 2008 nissan altima, since the date of purchase in may of 2008. to date, i have had to bring in the car for repairs ranging from squealing noises right down to out and out grinding which began only 3-4k miles after i purchased the car. after the first several repairs, which did absolutely "nothing' as i noticed the brakes squealing still just days after i brought the car in, the car dealership advised me there was a technical service bulletin (tsb) issued which required them to perform a 'complete" brake pad replacement, which included brake pads, rotors and brand new replacements of all other parts that the brakes use. since that time, the brakes continue to make this annoying squealing noise and when the dealership is questioned about it, they simply revert back to what they told me the very first time i called them about this 3-4 months after i bought the car, which was that this sound was normal with all cars and was nothing to be alarmed about, which sounded totally preposterous to me and was even proven incorrect months later after the initial complaint when they advised me there was that technical service bulletin (tsb) issued regarding this problem which resulted in the aforementioned complete overhaul repair. it was noted that, among other reasons, this occurs as a result of the problem is caused by the semi-metallic pads used by nissan and/or other cheap or poor quality brake products used. from what i have learned there have been "three" tsb's issued relating to brake problems with the 2008 nissan altima as follows: ntb07-003c murano and altima; squeak noise when brake pedal is pressed. ntb08-047 altima: rear brake noise at slow speeds ntb08-057 2007-2008 altima; front brake noise at slow speeds. *tr

2008 nissan altima 7,000 miles front brake pads are too hard. they cut into the brake rotors and cause car to stop poorly. they also screech. when stopping. at 7,500 service shop turned the rotors but did not replace the pads, so the hard pads will continue to cut into rotors and make stopping difficult. my 20005 ford freestyle had similar problems and ford recalled and replaced pads with softer ones and cured the problems. numerous owners of 2007 and 2008 nissan altimas are having the same problem please investigate. *tr

Vehicle rides unstable. sharp turns causes car to become unstable, loses controls of turn. tires or rims unbalanced. have vehicle seem many times and the problem can not be corrected. neither representative would confirm problem. told by american tires sale associate, nissan will not reimburse them for correcting the problems. they rebalanced the tires, but this did not correct the problem. advise right front tire problem, but they would not give a write up on the problem. my vehicle has had too many recalls. hanlees richmond hilltop nissan should have known about the many recalls, prior to selling this vehicle. march 26, 2009 had car in for servicing, driver seat broken, brake hardware damaged - brakes replaced. mileage at time of servicing 12,800. i had complained about these problems from day one. i spoke with the finance associate about replacing the car, but he refused.. i have noted from servicing order on march 26, 2009 - heat shield problem - high rpm on initial startup. antioch service advisor did not address this matter, because nissan has not issued a correction order on this as of today. this is a brand new car that has many problems from the first day of purchase! i have tried so many times to get help from the service center as well as nissan consumer services. not help!!! *tr
