Description of the problem	My 2013 nissan altima is inoperable due to a broken corroded rear wheel suspension link. The lower arm broke while i was driving the vehicle. I immediately noticed that the rear of the vehicle started to slide almost like i was driving in icey conditions, however the roads were clear. The anti skid sensor also lit up on the vehicle control panel. Once i pulled over and looked under the vehicle, i could see the rear wheel arm was broken, causing the tire to lean heavily to the side. The vehicle was towed to a repair shop in which i was informed about the recall p9324. I was told to contact a local nissan repair shop to get the repairs fixed under the recall. I followed the recommendation and contacted the local nissan repair shop. After talking with a technician, he confirmed their wad a recall and i made arrangements for the vehicle to be towed there. Since then i was told by the same shop that my vehicle is not a vehicle that falls under the recall. I researched the recall and found that nissan is campaigning to alert 2013 nissan altima owners located in cold weather states of the malfunctioning part do to corrosion from salt used in snow removal. I live in minnesota and purchased the vehicle in minnesota. The exact part the nissan is campaigning to be replaced has broken due to corrosion, however, nissan refuses to cover the repair costs and claims my vehicle doesn't fall under the recall. I do believe this broken part causes a safety risk as it occured while i was driving on a city street. The damage affected my ability to control the vehicle as the rear end was swerving due to the tire becoming detached from its original position.
