Consumer Description

I WAS RIDING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WHEN A LOUD POP CAME FROM THE STEERING COLUMN, AT THAT TIME THE STEERING WHEEL GOT REALLY LOOSE, FROM SIDE TO SIDE AND UP AND DOWN.I CALLED SUMBELT NISSAN THEY SAID THE BEARING HAD FAILED IN THE COLUMN,EITHER FROM NOT BEING PRESSED IN CORRECTLY OR IT COULD NOT BE THE RIGHT SIZE,THEY SAID TAKE IT EASY AND BRING IT IN TO REPLACE THE STEERING COLUMN BECAUSE IT COULD LOCK UP DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. AT NISSAN THEY REPLACED THE COLUMN,BUT IT CAME FROM THE SAME PERSON WHO MADE THE INCORRECT STEERING BEARING THE FIRST TIME. NISSAN STATED THIS HAD HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES IN THE 2005 AND THE 2006 TRUCK MODELS. THIS IS A DIRECT MANUFACTURER DEFECT THAT CAN CAUSE WREAKS AND BODILY HARM AND THEY STILL WONT RECALL THESE TRUCKS. IF YOU CHECK THESE COMPLAINTS YOU WILL FIND QUITE A FEW OF THEM PLEASE INVESTIGATE THESE CLAIMS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR
