4 stars Driver

Severe Injury Risk: 18% Driver, 20% Passenger

Test Date: Monday, June 12, 1995

Due to a change in passenger airbag design beginning with March 3, 1995 production, this vehicle was re-tested. These results only apply to 1995-1997 Altimas built after that date; older 1995 Altimas go off the crash test done on the 1994 model. 

The passenger airbag put on 1994 and early 1995 Altimas is known for causing severe eye injuries, this is likely the reason for the design change.
