| Description of the problem | Currently have to replace the power steering hose. Massive leak and using a bottle of power steering fluid every couple days. I have read and reviewed a minimum of 100 complaints of the exact same problem but nissan refuses to do a recall on this matter. I did not have any problems until my power steering quit working well on the highway going 55mph during a rain storm. I was very close to going in the ditch. This is not a $50 fix but a $450 fix and a problem that should not be occuring. I would be fine if it was a clamp that came lose or a bearing was leaking but for 100's of high pressure power steering lines to be faulty is a factory malfunction and should be recalled. Thank you *tt |
