Brake Disc problems of the 1996 Nissan Altima

Two problems related to brake disc have been reported for the 1996 Nissan Altima. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Brake Disc problem

Failure Date: 10/30/1996

Brakes have always squeaked excessively whether new or worn. Front defogger vents on dash separated from dash as dash continues to swell and deform over time in a premature manner I have also observed this defect on many other Altimas.

2 Brake Disc problem

I have had continuous problems with the brakes squeaking on this car since I purchased it. I have had the brakes worked on on 3 occasions in a 6 month period and the brakes still squeak. I'm wondering if this is a common problem with the Nissan Altima brakes or if it is an isolated incident with my car. I have had new brake pads and rotors put on. . . Squeaked. Then we changed to organic pads. . . Squeaked. At this point, I am not sure what to do.
