Consumer Description

NO CRASH YET BUT I DO HAVE A FISH TAILING, SIDE TO SIDE WOBBLING THAT APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN DEFECT FROM NISSAN. I OWN A 2001 NISSAN PATHFINDER WITH 99,000 MILES AND AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MILES AN HOUR, THE TRUCK WILL START WOBBLING SIDE TO SIDE DUE TO A RUT IN THE ROAD OR A GUST OF WIND. FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SEVERAL NISSAN MECHANICS, THE REAR UPPER AND LOWER CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS ARE BAD AND DETERIORATE PREMATURELY, CAUSING THE DANGEROUS WOBBLE IN THE TRUCK. THE COST TO REPLACE THE BUSHINGS IS $700.00 PLUS AND HAVE TO BE REPLACED. VERY POOR DESIGN WHICH WILL END UP CAUSING SERIOUS ACCIDENTS OR INJURIES. THANK YOU. *TR
