| Description of the problem | I was driving and made a right turn when my family and i heard a pop. I did not hit a pothole or anything unusual. Did not realized what had happened until a few days later when i went to my mechanic to replace the struts and he informed me that the sway bar was broken. For no reason it broke and i think that it shouldn't have happened. I think nissan should make this part a recall. I love obviously nissan because in my immediate family we own three of them. I love to continue to be a nissan owner, but if they cannot continue to make reliable cars, we would have to take our business elsewhere. I hope nissan would take a close look at this problem, rectify it and continue to build dependable cars that we have grown to love. |
