Consumer Description

2006 PATHFINDER STEERING COLUMN ISSUE. STEERING GOES FROM WOBBLY TO TIGHT BUT MOSTLY WOBBLES. PROBLEM WORSENING OVER THE COURSE OF A FEW WEEKS. DEALERSHIP STATES THAT BEARINGS ARE WORN OUT IN THE COLUMN AND THE ONLY WAY TO REPAIR IT IS TO BUY WHOLE NEW COLUMN AND COUPLING FOR $1300. NISSAN REFUSES TO OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE AS CAR IS OUTSIDE OF THE 3 YR/36,000 WARANTY. SEARCHED INTERNET AND THERE ARE MANY OTHER 2005-2006 PATHFINDER OWNERS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE. ONE SIMILAR POSTING: HTTP://REVIEWS.CNET.COM/SUV/2006-NISSAN-PATHFINDER-LE/4864-10868_7-31849298-1.HTML?TAG=TXT;UO. HAVE TO SAY THAT I AM SURPRISED THAT NISSAN WOULD NOT TAKE A MORE PROACTIVE APPROACH IN DEALING WITH THIS DEFECT AS IT COULD POTENTIALLY BE LIFE THREATENING.
