| Description of the problem | The leaf spring bolt broke and caused the rear axel leaf spring to shoot through the bed of the truck. On inspection the other leaf spring was ready to also break. This was discovered while turning a corner on the road. Passenger and driver side shackle, clips, spring assemble, bolts needed to be replaced. All parts on both sides of the truck needed to be replaced since the other one was found to be defective also. All parts were replaced with new parts at our expense. Nissan stated it was normal wear and tear. However, several master mechanics stated they have never seen this happen. |
