Consumer Description

MY WIFE WAS MAKING RIGHT HAND TURN, ENTERING A HIGHWAY, SHE LOST TOTAL CONTROL OF THE STEERING. THE VEHICLE VEERED TO THE LEFT THEN VEERED TO THE RIGHT. SHE WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE WITHOUT INCIDENT AND PARKED ON THE SHOULDER. HAD CAR TOWED TO GARAGE, MECHANIC INSPECTED SUSPENSION AND STEERING, AND WAS UNABLE TO FIND A PROBLEM. H STATED HE WENT ON LINE AND DISCOVERED SOME STEERING ISSUES. HOWEVER, HE STATED, BECAUSE IT HAS AN ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM, RESETTING THE SYSTEM BY TURNING OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTING THE VEHICLE SHOULD SOLVE THE IMMEDIATE PROBLEM (AS IT WAS STATED ON THE FORUM). THIS IS RIDICULOUS WHEN YOU ARE GOING 60 MPH AND GOING BACK AND FORTH ACROSS THE ROAD. I WENT TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND HE STATED HE KNEW NOTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE.
