| Description of the problem | Was turning out of driveway and heard a popping noise. When i stopped to look, i noticed a black bar or hose hanging from the back driver side suspension area. After research, i found that the sway bar breakage is a common issue on this year and model. We jacked the car up and saw rust on the hose. I dropped the car off at nissan this morning and they just called to confirm this is the sway bar. It is covered under my extended warranty. |
