1 Brake Light problem

Failure Date: 01/01/1996

From the moment I've purchased the vehicle, I noticed that once the brakes were applied at any speed, that the brake lights flicker and do not light properly. One side doesn't light while the other side does. This event only happens when the headlights are on. There is no problem when operating the vehicle without headlights or running lights on. This seems to be a common problem as I drive for a living and notice repeatedly that this incident occurs with virtually every Nissan Altima that I observe on the roads. I am concerned that because of the brake light issue this might cause a following vehicle to not see the brake lights properly and strike me or I might recieve a summons or possibly fail vehicle inspection.
