Consumer Description

1999 NISSAN PATHFINDER. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES RELATED TO THE NISSAN SALT STATES RECALL *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED IN MARCH 2010, SHE NOTICED THE VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT TO STEER AND MAKING A GRINDING AND RUBBING NOISE DURING STEERING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A REPAIR SHOP WHERE IT WAS DOCUMENTED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE SUSPENSION, LEFT HOUSING AND LEFT SIDE STRUT SEAMS WERE RUSTED AND BROKEN DUE TO MAJOR CORROSION. THE CORROSION CAUSED PARTS OF THE UNIT TO RUB AGAINST THE STEERING COLUMN WHICH CAUSED THE GRINDING NOISE. IT WAS FOUND THAT THE STRUT AND APRON WERE NOT SAFE TO SUPPORT THE DRIVER SIDE SUSPENSION. THE REPAIRS WERE MADE TO THE DRIVER LEFT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE'S STRUT TO CORRECT THE DRIVER-SIDE SUSPENSION AND OVERALL STEERING. THE CONSUMER IS SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT AS SHE REFERENCED RECALL #11V244000. *JB
