| Description of the problem | Was driving straight on hwy going 70 mph when i went over a normal hwy bump, felt a snap and could feel the back of the car fishtail. This fishtailing occurred a few days. Was able to get it to the dealer where it was determined that the rear subframe had rusted and broke. Repairs were $3-4k for a new subframe and labor and the car was unsafe to drive. Filed complaint with nissan. Also the brand new tires that were put on at 110k miles now need to be replaced due to the 4 days of wear because of the suspension issue. |
