Description of the problem	I was backing out of my driveway about 5mph and heard a loud thud, as if i ran something over, looked under my car and the rear wheel control arm had come detached and was broken. I called the nissan dealer who said both control arms need replaced because the other one is cracked. I started researching as i found this odd to happen in a 2013 vehicle & found more than 347,000 cars may have this same problem. This is a serious issue and all vehicles need recalled as this could lead to the driver losing complete control of their vehicle and possible death. I am grateful my 18 yr old son who is a new driver was not on the turnpike when these decided to give out and that i was just backing out of my driveway. Not only is it a safety hazard but when this happens it could also lead to thousands of dollars of additional damage if you are actually in motion with the vehicle. As i am in need of a vehicle i have to pay for these to be fixed which i was just quoted a whopping $2,100. Shame on nissan!! Someone is going to die if the control arms of the 2013 nissan altima do not get recalled and these vehicles are left on the road without the repairs needed.

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.
