NHTSA Complaint #10587385 — 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA

ON THE THIRD DAY OF OWNING THIS VEHICLE, I TOOK IT ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS VEHICLE HAS THE WORST HANDLING OF ANY CAR I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. IT DRIFTS ALL OVER THE ROAD WITH LITTLE CONTROL. IF YOU ARE IN A CROSSWIND OR BEHIND A TRUCK, THE VEHICLE DRIFTS HORRIBLY TOO. YOU MUST HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP CORRECTING TO STAY IN YOUR LANE! THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE. I AM VERY UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS HAPPENS MOSTLY AT HIGH SPEEDS UNLESS IT IS A BREEZY DAY, THEN IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME EVEN AT SLOWER SPEEDS. YOU CAN BE DRIVING STRAIGHT FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR DRIFTS HARD TO ONE SIDE. YOU HAVE TO CORRECT QUICKLY IN ORDER TO NOT GO INTO THE NEXT LANE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. I HAVE HAD THIS INTO MY DEALERSHIP TWICE AND THE FIRST TIME THEY TOLD ME NOTHING WAS WRONG. I JUST NEEDED TO GET USED TO THE WAY IT DRIVES. THE SECOND TIME, THEY ADJUSTED THE REAR ALIGNMENT AND CHANGED OUT TIRES TO MICHELIN TIRES. THIS HELPED A LITTLE BIT BUT DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. NOW THE REAR END VIBRATES AND DRIFTS. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR 3 MONTHS AND I CANNOT BELIEVE THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL ON THIS. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED IF SOMETHING IS NOT CORRECTED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR SURE! *TR
