| Description of the problem | I am a mother of two elementary school children. I drive them to and from school each day. During these trips and other daily errands, my 2006 nissan pathfinder violently shakes at random throughout the drive. This causes me to be fearful of not being able to control the vehicle, especially when i am transporting my children. The steering wheel visibly shakes and the vehicle feels as of we are riding over rough terrain. Apparently this is happening with a good majority of nissan vehicles now, and that is very frightening for them to be on the road . I feel a recall is needed to save a life. |
