Consumer Description

THE CAR IS EXTREMELY UNSTABLE IN THE RAIN. I HAVE REPLACED THE ORIGINAL TIRES WITH A BETTER QUALITY BUT THAT HAS NOT HELPED. SPECIFICALLY, THE CAR FISH TAILS EASILY BOTH DURING BRAKING AND/OR TURNING IN WET WEATHER. THIS IS NOT A DRIVER RELATED ISSUE. I AM A 47 YEAR OLD ACCIDENT FREE DRIVER. I AM TRADING THE CAR BECAUSE I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT IT IS SAFE. IN DRY CONDITIONS THE CAR IS FINE. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINED WITH T HIS PERFORMANCE AND HAVE FOUND 2 OTHERS ALTIMA OWNERS WHO REPORT THE SAME PROBLEM. IN FLORIDA WE RECEIVE A LOT OF SUMMER RAIN.*AK
