| Description of the problem | Driving between 35-60 mph my 2006 pathfinder was shaking as if i were on a rumble strip. It continued to worsen as the week progressed. I took it into the dealer and was told that both front and rear u-joints were loose and needed to be replaced. With only 81000 miles on my vehicle i asked if this was premature for both u-joints to fail at the same time. I was told it is considered "normal wear and tear". The cost of replacement was $1200. *tt |
