Consumer Description

I NOTICED POWER STEERING FLUID ON THE GROUND AND NOTICED THAT THE POWER STEERING RESERVOIR WAS LOW. I PUT THE CAR ON JACKSTANDS AND CONFIRMED THAT THE POWER STEERING HIGH PRESSURE LINE WAS LEAKING. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION SINCE THE FLUID IS COMBUSTIBLE AND I OBSERVED THE STEERING FLUID ON THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND EXHAUST PIPE. I FIXED THE HOSE MYSELF AND SAVED ALMOST $450 BUT NISSAN SHOULD ADDRESS THIS DEFECT BEFORE SOMEBODY IS KILLED IN A FIRE. AFTER READING THE NISSAN FORUMS ONLINE IT LOOKS LIKE NISSAN HAS MADE NO ATTEMPT TO CORRECT THIS DANGEROUS DEFECT. *TR
