Consumer Description

2004 NISSAN MAXIMA. CAR DEVELOPS A DANGEROUS VIBRATION BETWEEN 50 AND 60 MPH. ALSO HAS A LOUD KNOCK COMING FROM UNDER THE CAR. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER TWICE. THIS FIRST TIME THEY REPLACED THE RIGHT FRONT STRUT SAYING THAT IT HAD BROKEN. THEY SAID THE VIBRATION WAS COMING FROM CUPPED TIRES CAUSED BY THE BROKEN STRUT. THE LOUD KNOCK WAS LESS BUT STILL APPARENT. TOOK BACK TO DEALER WHO THEN TIGHTENED THE "TIE ROD WHICH WAS LOOSE. NO MENTION OF CUPPED TIRES WAS MADE. KNOCK IS STILL PRESENT AND ALSO THE VIBRATION IS ALSO STILL A BIG PROBLEM. THE CAR HAS THE 18" WHEELS. *NM
