When the car was assembled at the manufacturer, the air comprosser was bolted down to tightly.we had purchased the car in nov. 1998 and when summer of 1999 rolled around the air conditioner would not cool.the dealer filled the unit with freon and it held for the summer by summer of 2000 the freon had leaked out again.this time they charged us to refill the unit but put a die to see about a leak,what they found was when it was built, the screw at the top was tightened down too tight and there was a small leak allowing the freon to escape.now instead of standing behind the part and the labor they only are willing to provide the part.it was the manufacturer labor that made the part defective.please help.

When you hit the brakes you will hit the gas pedal at the same time if your foot is not square on the brake pedal

When brake pedal is fully depressed, it goes lower than the gas pedal.if the right foot/shoe is not fully on the brake pedal, the right side of the foot/shoe will also push down on the gas pedal causing the vehicle to accelerate while you are trying to brake.seems to be a design flaw.i've checked out 1 other 200sx and the same thing happens.although my wife is now aware of it, it happened to her twice in emergency situations, but those did not result in an accident, unlike the 10/10/98 incident involving my daughter..

Tires squeak.

Recently my wiper failed due to linkage issues, upon investigation my make model and year of car had a recall for this issue.when trying to get it repaired i was told my vin number was not among those eligible for repair due to recall.i have a problem with this considering i am actually having the specific failure on my vehicle there obviously has been a mistake and this should be taken care of by the manufacturer seeing as my vehicle will not pass inspection with this defect.
