1. All Altimas subject to the first recall came out of the Canton, MS plant. I'm not sure if all the owners who are posting for noise problem have all their cars made from Canton plant. I don't know if it has any relation but the Auto Workers Union is trying to organize the workers there. I don't know if it will come to a vote. The Smyrna, TN workers had rejected the union a long time ago with something like 2-1 votes in favor not to unionize.

2. It has also been widely reported that Nissan is bringing in contract workers at about 1/2 the wages of current workers. These workers are not employees of Nissan but of the contractor. I don't know where they come from nor do I know their skills level.

If I were buying an Altima I woud avoid buying one made from the Canton plant. My '02 Altima was made in Smyrna, TN plant. Your VIN # can tell you the plant it was made of.
