NHTSA Complaint #11072347 — 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA

WENT OUT TO MY CAR ( PARKED) AND NOTICED SOMETHING HANGING FROM UNDERNEATH DRIVERS SIDE. A LARGE MASS OF RUSTED FLOOR BOARD WAS HANGING TO THE GROUND. I TOUCHED IT AND IT FELL OFF, ABOUT A FOOT LONG AND JUST AS WIDE.LAID ON GROUND TO SEE UNDER CAR AND THE DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR BOARD IS RUSTED OUT.HAS BEEN FOR REGULAR OIL CHANGES AND THE MECHANIC HAS NOT MENTIONED THIS.I DISCUSSED WITH MECHANIC AND HE NOTIFIED ME THAT HE HAS SEEN THIS BEFORE AND I SHOULDN'T ALLOW MY TEEN DAUGHTER TO DRIVE HER CAR BECAUSE IT IS UNSAFE.I THEN CHECKED ON THE INTERNET TO FIND OUT THAT THIS WAS HAPPENING ALL NISSAN ALTIMA'S FROM 2002-2006. YET, NISSAN HAS NOT TAKEN RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS IN A RECALL . IS NISSAN WAITING FOR MY DAUGHTERS FOOT TO GO THROUGH THE FLOOR AND CRASH AND DIE BEFORE THEY DO THE RIGHT THING. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE. SOMEONE NEEDS TO STEP IN OR STEP UP TO RESOLVE THIS BEFORE SOMEONE DIES. SO THE CAR REMAINS PARKED.QUESTION 'WOULD THEY LET THERE TEEN DRIVE THIS CAR "? REMEMBER THE DRIVERS SEAT IS ALSO ATTACHED TO THIS AREA WILL IT STAND UP TO A CRASH OR GIVE WAY THROWING DRIVER THROUGH FRONT WINDOW ? TAKING PICTURES OF DAMAGE TO DOCUMENT. THANKS
