Consumer Description

EVER SINCE THE FIRST DAY I PURCHASED MY 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA, I NOTICED SOMETHING RATHER ODD. AT 50 MPH, EVEN LESS AT MOST TIMES, THERE IS A TERRIBLE SHIMMY WHICH CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. WHEN I STEP ON THE BRAKES AT OR ABOVE 50 MPH, THE WHEEL SHAKES FEROCIOUSLY OUT OF CONTROL, AND THIS CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS SERIOUS ACCIDENT, ESPECIALLY IN RAIN OR SNOW, AND EVEN ON DRY LAND. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE. EVERYONE WITH A 2004-2006 NISSAN MAXIMA HAS THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A LEMON. *JB
