Description of the problem	I own a 2013 altima sv purchased brand new, april 2013 and i am having serious steering issues when driving over 60-65mph, car feels like it is wandering all over the road, i constantly feel like i have to correct the steering, very unsafe feeling and wears you out, one coplaint i read mentioned that its like driving on ice, great analogy unfortunately it really does!! My husband travels and drives a great deal as part of his job and he drives everywhere, he stated that he even feels uncomfortable driving at higher speeds in this car also and he drives all kinds of cars. I have actually started taking alternate routes to avoid driving on the highway at these higher speeds, which is completely ludicrous, it's only a 3 year old car with less than 40,000 miles on it and purchased brand new by me and i should feel safe in it, and at the higher speeds, i do not feel safe in it!!! I have read lots of reviews and complaints about this, so obviously nissan has got to know about this, all you have to do is search on the internet and you will find there are tons of complaints... So, when is something going to be done about this.??? Nissan needs to step up and issue a recall because something very clearly is not right with the steering as evidenced by many complaints,,we can't all be making this up!!!! At lower speeds it is fine, i don't have the problem until i hit about 60-65 and no, i will not get used to it, as nissan likes to tell their customers! We even put brand new bridgestone turanza tires on it thinking maybe that was the problem but it is still doing it.. But what good is that when it still feels unsafe??? I used to love my nissans, i also have a 2001 maxima bought brand new that my son now drives , great car and now this altima, but i would definitely not buy another nissan if this issue isn't resolved!!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
