| Description of the problem | I was driving from work, when i heard a loud popping sound unknown where it was coming from so i pulled over to inspect my vehicle. As i exited my seat i notice that the driver side seat was leaning / rocking to the left side and apparently something had broken. I notified nissan corporation offices where i spoke to a customer service representative to see if it was a recall on this vehicle for the diver side seat. I was told that there were no recalls but take to the nissan dealer and have it looked at then do a follow up call with him afterwards. I then went on line and notices that it was thousands of people that were having the same problem that i was experiencing. I could not believe that there was no recall. This is most definitely a safety issued and i don't know what it is going to take before nissan realize it. |
