problem #1

Oct 272006

Pathfinder 4WD 6-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 68,000 miles
Dangerous wobble of car when on the highway. From reports I've read on the internet, seems to be caused by degrading control arm bushings. Fix may be to replace all 8-10 bushings and/or control-link arms. Problem seems to be common on '96-97 Nissan Pathfinders.
