| Description of the problem | We have had our car into the dealer 9 times since june 2018. They have been replacing the cruise control sensors and the car started pulling to the right very hard. We have worked thru the dealer, the corporate headquarters, contacted the bbb auto and have an open account there. We got our car back yesterday and took it for a long ride on highway 95 north this afternoon and for 100 miles the car kept pulling to the right and then to the left and continued for every mile. We turned off onto a 3 lane road and were going slower and it went across all three lanes each way, left and right. I took video while my husband drove. It is a very dangerous situation. We were entering the highway via a cloverleaf turn and the car almost ran into the guardrail. We contacted the dealership at 3:30 and they told us they were closing soon so we could not bring the car in. They said an expert from nissan corporate said the car worked just fine. My husband says its not tires, the steering is binding and he has advised me not to drive the car. We asked to have an appointment for monday but they said the manager charlie had been made aware of the issue and would talk on monday. I emailed the corporate person but it is saturday. We have decided to file this complaint as it could be happening all over. |
