| Description of the problem | My altima acts as if the alignment is out. At all speeds it drifts and i usually drive 55-70 on the highway and it will drift to the extreme right and left. I have to continue to steer left and right to keep it in between the lines of the direction i am traveling. If there is any wind i have to drive holding the wheel with both hands to keep it in my lane. I had a gust of wind cause my vehicle to travel in the oncoming lane because of the drift. This vehicle is a danger and life threatening to my family and me. I have taken it to firestone for alignments and to landers mcclarty nissan of huntsville alabama and it remains a danger to my family. Alignments did not fix anything. |
