2001 INFINITI I30 Steering Problems

THERE IS VIBRATION AND A CLUNKING NOISE WHEN TURNING. IT IS HARD TO STEER STRAIGHT ON ROAD. THE REAR SUSPENSION INCLUDING IT'S PARTS HAVE FAILED MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO PROPERLY ALIGN THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS CAUSED THE FRONT SUSPENSION TO DEGENERATE CONSIDERABLY CAUSING PERSISTANT VIBRATION AND A CLUNKING NOISE. THIS ALSO CREATES A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING. IT CANNOT BE PROPERLY CENTERED. THE RIGHT REAR SEVERLY UNDER STEERS. THERE IS A DEFECTIVE TRANSVERSE LINK, SPRINGS AND STRUTS AND A DEFECTIVE RACK AND PINION.

TAKERS RECALL WHEEL JERKS TO EITHER RIGHT OR LEFT AND CAUSES CARE TO JERK TO EITHER SIDE I WAS GOING 55 TO 60 MILES PER HOUR AND IT ALMOST THREW ME COMPLETELY OFF THE ROAD AND ANOTHER TIME IT JERKED ME TOWARDS A CAR COMING HEAD ON AT ME.

TAKATA RECALL FOR FRONT SUSPENSION TRANSVERSE LINK. I THINK THIS VEHICLE BELONGS IN THE LIST AND OF THE I30T 2001 INFINITI AND SO DOES THE MECHANIC THAT INSPECTED THE VEHICLE

THESE TIRES HIT HARD ON BUMPS. ALSO WHEN BREAKING TIRES DO NOT STOP CORRECTLY THE TRACK LIGHT COMES ON IN THE CAR. EVERY WEEK I HAVE TO PUT AIR IN THEM ALSO I NOTICE WHEN GOING AT A SPEED OVER 55 YOU CAN FEEL VIBRATIONS ON STEERING WHEEL.I AM TIRED OF WORRYING EVERYDAY TO PUT AIR IN THE TIRES SO I DON'T GET STUCK NOW I HAVE TO GO AND BUY NEW TIRES I JUST THINK THAT COOPER TIRES SHOULD REIMBURSE PEOPLE FOR THE COST. *TR
