Description of the problem	On 9/9/2020 my wife was driving our 2014 nissan altima home from an errand when she felt that the steering was compromised. After arriving home she asked me to drive the car. I proceeded to back out of our driveway and after traveling only about 6' the driver rear wheel 'dropped'. Before exiting the vehicle i told her that it felt like the wheel had fallen off. I crawled under the vehicle and found that the rear driver control arm had completely rusted through causing the part to fail. I spoke to nissan consumer affairs and learned that there was not an open recall for the 2014 altima but there was for the 2013 altima. I then decided to investigate on the national highway traffic safety administration website. I learned that the 2013-2018 control arm share a similar design when further reading nhtsa action number ea 19002. I also discovered that there was recall for the 2014 altima in canada and we live 17 miles from the canadian border. I feel that the recall for this part should be expanded to include model year 2014-2018 because of the shared design.
