Pathfinder

  • 120,000 miles
At around 120000 miles the vehicle began to sway uncontrollably. Mechanics could find nothing wrong. Only way to stop the sway is to tap the brakes or accelerate. Happens quite often and is downright scary at times. Also the entire underbody / frame is extremely corroded. Vehicle should not corrode that quickly. All underbody parts are extremely rusted.

I received Nissan car recall program(11V24400) and got inspection at local Nissan dealer(Nissan North America, Inc. NY) on 07/14/11. The inspection report showing my car "found excessive corrosion on left strut" since last year(07/14/11) inspection Nissan didn't give me any service of my car problem(I been call their dealer few times). I got answer from Nissan is they don't have this parts.
