Nissan Recalls 140,582 Altimas Because Air Filter May Ignite

Nissan Motor Co. is recalling 140,582 of its Altima cars for the model year 2007 because the air filter can catch fire if a hot object is drawn into it, the Japanese automaker said.

The recall of the automaker's best-selling car in the United States affects Altima cars with a 2.5-liter, four- cylinder engine. This fact was reported to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration before the automaker began notifying owners July 3. The automaker added four fires were reported in February and March.

The filter will be replaced because it can ignite if something hot such as cigarette ash enters through the vehicle's fresh-air intake valve, Nissan said. An air deflector also will be installed to prevent a buildup of debris at the filter.

The Altima accounted for 140,253, or 26 percent, of Nissan's U.S. sales this year through June. The model was ninth in sales among all cars and light trucks in the U.S. during the period.

Idle Air Control Valve?

2001 Maxima

I changed the radiator or all things and ever since, my IACV is cycling almost all the time. I can hear the stepping motor pulsing 5-8 times. It happens when I turn the key to ACC, rev the motor and turn it off. I heard that coolant runs through this but why would this act up all of a sudden. I have burped the system so I do not think there is any trapped air and the heat works fine. The mechanic said it is about $350 and the car idles and runs fine so ignore the noise and leave it alone. Will this work itself out. Will it break and if so, what will happen. Can I remove it and service the part? What are your thoughts. The noise is not very loud but if you are listening for it you can hear it when you are driving the car. The Idle Air Control Valve sits near the rear intake. It apparently controls the throttle by slightly raising or lowering RPM to compensate for things light a cold start and any other stresses on the engine.

$350.00 is freaking outrageous. I could buy a complete factory new Hitachi throttle body with the idle controller, mass air flow sensor and the throttle position sensor for $350.00.

Some day people will learn how bad off-shore owned car companies try to rob people of their hard earned money. What you think you sane in gas and "car quality," parts prices eventually catch up with you.
