Brakes make loud squealing and grinding noise starting as little as 8 to 10 thousand miles even when pads and rotors are fine. The steering column pops and jolts slightly when turning starting at 27 thousand miles. The car makes a clunking noise when taking moderate to hard right or left turns at any speed. One tire sensor has already gone bad at 20 thousand miles.

Any time you step on the brakes they have a very loud squeal when backing up. (backing out of a parking spot in a parking lot). Have to pump brakes while backing up to get squeal to stop. Has done this since vehicle was purchased in August 2009 to date. Have had several different mechanics, including a Nissan dealer, look at the brakes at least 10+ times and they found no issues. Also when you step on brakes while driving to come to a stop there is a loud scraping noise coming from the passenger side front. Again nothing found by Nissan dealer.
