It seem like this year 2008 Altima has a problem with brakes. Almost every 2 yrs I have to change my pads on this car. I even replaced both rotors and all brakes parts front and rear to see if that will fix the problem, but it didn't. I don't understand why the Altima is so bad on brakes. I never had to change any other car brakes so much, that is why I will not buy another Nissan. Everyone I talk to that has one of these cars says the same thing and so did the Nissan car mechanic.
