The Altima has been the subject of 20 non-injury complaints regarding a loss of stopping power. The culprit is supposed to be a brake fluid leak which, if left unaddressed by drivers when the warning light "is ignored," decreases braking force. There are 440,000 Altimas included in the investigation. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/nissan">Nissan</a> recalled 180,000 <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/sentra">Sentras</a> from the same model years for the same kind of leak.<br />
<br />
There are also 220,000 <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/jeep">Jeep</a> Wranglers under investigation for non-deployment of drivers' airbags due to a failed electrical circuit. 29 non-injury complaints were received, and at least six of the Wranglers were found to have been right-hand-drive models.<p style="padding:5px;backgr ound:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/05/28/nhtsa-opens-investigation-into-nissan-altima-jeep-wrangler-mode/">NHTSA investigating some Nissan Altima, Jeep Wrangler models</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblo g</a> on Sat, 28 May 2011 12:39:00 EST.
