Description of the problem | Tl*the contact owns a 2007 nissan sentra. The contact took the vehicle in for routine inspection and was informed that he needed a front end alignment. The psi warning light illuminated on the instrument control panel. After the repair was made, the contact had to continuously insert air into the rear driver's side wheel. Several weeks later, while driving 41 mph, the rear driver's side wheel overturned and caused him to lose control of the vehicle and rollover. The vehicle was completely destroyed and the contact sustained moderate injuries. The manufacturer could not determine the cause of the failure; therefore, they would not assume any financial liability. The contact has pictures of the failure and a copy of the police report.
