 The rearview mirror on my 2002 nissan altima has fogged up almost completely, leaving about 20 percent still clear, making it almost very confusing and hard to see. call to nissan and dealer resulted in so what ... like its ok for a vehicle that is garaged, only 21142 miles of use, to have a key safety feature go awry. dealer quoted price for new rearview mirror as $278 plus tax *jb

 Cutch pedal did not return while driving after the third day i purchased. i brought the car back to the dealer (wondries nissan in city of alhambra)try to solve the problems (four times). they kept saying they couldn't duplicate the problems. one day the clutch started having some sort of noise everytime i stepped on it and i brought it back to wondries nissan and they finally fixed it after four five months i got the vehicle.

 Exact date of initial incident not known. my center console was in use while highway driving behind a commercial vehicle in the far right hand lane. debris fell onto the road and in an effort to avoid it, i swerved to the left. this action placed more of my weight on the consule and it collapsed. when it did so, i fell to the right away from the steering wheel and placed additional pressure on the gas pedel nearly sending myself into the median and possibly flipping over. i did manage to compensate and avoided an accident but was very shackened and had to pullover to compose myself. since then the consule has been replaced 3 times. the parts department has acknowledged that this should be looked at by nissan and the service department advised me i use the center console incorrectly and no presure or weight was ment to be placed on this component. in my 30 years driving i have driven many cars with consols and have never encountered this problem. i am of average height and weight and do not believe that i have caused this problem and that a console should stand up to average use.

 The instrument panel is not visible enough for consumer to quickly and safely check the gauges while operating vehicle in daylight. a glance at the instrument panel should be all that is needed to check the gauges. this is not the case. consumer feels this is a safety hazard that could result in danger if one has to stare longer than a brief momment in checking the gauge temperatures. *jg
