Description of the problem | Purchased a new nissan titan in 2/2005. Had the front brakes replaced at 25,000 under warranty when began to feel vibration in steering wheel while applying the brakes. Presently i have 57,000 miles on the truck and the same vibration in the steering wheel while applying the brakes is happening again. Took the vehicle to local dealer and they informed me that i needed a updated torque member kit and new front pads and brakes for my truck at a cost of $756. 59 because the truck was out of warranty. The service manager said to take my compliant to the factory. I have called repeatedly to the factory and am still waiting for a call back. Driving my truck is unsafe and i am risking my life everyday i get into it to drive to and from work. My major compliant with this issue is that it is not a warranty issue, it is a manufactured defect in the torque member kit and front brakes and i should not be responsible for the cost. |
