95 NISSAN ALTIMA SHOWS "AIR BAG WARNING" WITHOUT ANY DISCREPANCIES. I SHOWED MY CAR TO NISSAN DEALER AND HE SAID THAT SENSOR FAILED , SO IT IS SHOWING WARNING. HE SAID THAT WOULD COST ME $900 BUGS. I ASKED THE DEALER TO NOT TO DO ANY WORK ON THIS . I WANT TO LET HIGHWAY SAFETY TO KNOW THIS AND TAKE ACTION ON THIS, REPLACE THE SENSOR FREELY, BECAUSE IT IS NOT DRIVER'S FAULT AND THERE IS NO WEAR AND TEAR AND REMAINING ALL WORKS FINE. *NM

A GREAT DEAL OF OIL IS LEAKING FROM THE FRONT SEAL ON THE TIMING COVER. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 1995 NISSAN ALTIMA AND NISSAN HAS ISSUED AT LEAST THREE SERVICE BULLETINS REGARDING THIS PROBLEM, TWO SERVICE BULLETINS WERE ISSUED IN THE FIRST YEAR OF PRODUCTION (1995)!! THIS DEFECT REQUIRES A REPAIR COST OF APPROXIMATELY $750, AND SHOULD BE A RECALL WHERE NISSAN BEARS THE COST OF REPLACING SUCH A QUICKLY OCCURRING AND OBVIOUS DEFECT. *JB

CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE TO DISENGAGE WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKES WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND COMING OFF A FREEWAY OFF RAMP. I TIRED SEVERAL TIMES PRESSING THE BRAKES TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. I FINALLY PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO STOP IT. I WAS VERY LUCKY THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS IN MY PATH OR I WOULD HAVE HIT THEM OR CAUSED A ACCIDENT RESULTING IN INJURIES OR DEATH.

DT RECEIVED A NOTICED FROM PERSON I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM. THIS LETTER STATES THAT NISSIAN OFFERING NEW AIR BAG THAT WAS IS MADE BETTER AND TO BE INSTALLED IN MY VEHICLE AT NO CHARGE TO ME. IT DOES SOUND LIKE A RECALL. HAVE CONTACTED DEALER THEY SAID THIS DOES NOT SHOW THIS IN THEIR SYSTEMS AND HAD ME TO CONTACT NISSIAN NORTH AMERICA. CONTACTED NISSIAN AND THEY HAD ME FAX THIS LETTER TO THEM ONCE ON MAY 31ST, JUNE 10TH, AND JUNE 23RD. HAVE STILL NOT HEARD ANYTHING BACK FROM NISSIAN. HAVE ALSO LEFT MESSAGES AND STILL NO CONTACT BACK FROM NISSIAN. *NM
