Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have been having a "squealing" brake for the past couple of months. throughout the entire day, my brakes would make a shrilly noise whenever i braked (at least 4 or 5 times throughout the day). i took my car to the mechanics and had a brake inspection done. the mechanic said my brakes are brand new... so i went to the nissan dealer in cerritos. they informed me of a memo that nissan had sent out to its dealers regarding brake noise, claiming that it was "normal" to have some noise. in any case, i feel that a 6 month old car should have no noise coming from anywhere, considering that i have followed the complete warranty instructions in maintaining my car. in addition, the mechanic that inspected my brakes also told me that he, too, had an altima; and that his brakes started making noise since 5,000 miles. if there are any reports or any news in regards to nissan brakes, please contact me. your help is appreciated. *ak
