NHTSA Complaint #10970503 — 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER

MY TRUCKS STEERING SYSTEM IS MAKING A LOUD NOISE WHEN TURNING AND GOING OVER BUMPS AT LOW SPEED. WHEN MY TRUCK IS RAISED UP AND I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL THERE IS NO NOISE. WHEN I LOWER IT DOWN ON THE GROUND AND TURN THE WHEEL WHEN PARKED IT MAKES THE LOUD NOISE. I CHECKED RECALLS AND THERE SEEMS TO BE ONE FOR SOME STEERING WHEEL ISSUE, BUT WHEN I CALLED NISSAN THEY SAID MY VEHICLE WAS NOT AFFECTED BY THAT RECALL. AFTER READING CUSTOMER REVIEWS, MY VEHICLE IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS THAT THOSE CUSTOMERS VEHICLES WERE HAVING THAT WERE AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. I AM CURIOUS IF NOT ENOUGH COMPLAINTS FILED FOR THIS SPECIFIC YEAR. BECAUSE WHY WOULD MY VEHICLE STEERING BE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AS THE VEHICLES THAT WERE HAVING THAT WERE LISTED ON THE RECALL. I REALLY DON'T WANT TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE AND RISK HAVING MY STEERING GO OUT BECAUSE OF A DEFECTED PART. MY VEHICLE IS BABIED AND LOOKS LIKE BRAND NEW STILL. ALWAYS BEEN KEPT INSIDE GARAGE DURING WINTER . THIS IS THE FIRST WINTER IT HAS BEEN DRIVEN IN SNOW AND WE HAVE HAD SNOW ONLY A COUPLE TIMES.
