I bought 2001 nissan maxima 2 months back. Never used A/C so far, when I was using A/c last 2 weeks back. I don;t see A/c is working very well, just normal comes out. But heater work very well. Any thought what needs to be checked ?

Also, when I drive in Down and apply brake steering shakes little ?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Thanks,

have it check the a/c gas.. probably needs a refill (also check for leaks)
the "shake" it can be caused for a damaged brake disc..
have your brakes checked too.

Suggested Repair

Have the A/C refrigerant level checked and look for leaks; refill if low. Also have the brakes inspected for a damaged brake disc that can cause steering shake when braking.
