Consumer Description

STEERING WHEEL WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN. THIS MADE STEERING DIFFICULT. WHEEL WOULD NOT RETURN TO STRAIGHT POSITION WITH OUT HELP. I THINK THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. TOOK SUV TO DEALER WHO REPLACED THE STEERING COL. NISSAN DID NOT PAY ANY OF THE REPAIR COST BECAUSE SUV HAD 43, 000 MILES. I KEPT THE OLD PARTS JUST TO PROVE PROBLEM. I THOUGHT THAT NISSAN WOULD PAY SOME OF THE REPAIR COST BUT THEY DID NOT. THEY BELIEVED THIS WAS A NORMAL WEAR. FIRST ONE I HAVE HAD! I HAVE DRIVEN CARS AND PU TRUCKS OVER 750,000 MILE IN THE LAST 20 YEARS. I THINK THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THAT NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED BY NISSAN. DOES THE MANUFACTURER PAY FOR THESE PROBLEMS. DRIVING WAS UN SAFE IN MY OPINION...PLEASE HELP BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OF WORSE..... *TR
