Sentra

  • miles
Vehicle was cut off while at 60 mph. Driver had to panic stop to avoid accident. Engine stalled. On restart, car vibrated and steered poorly. Nissan dealer diagnosed bent control arm. Panic stop was in straight line on clear, dry road with no surface irregularities. I believe this was a component failure or defect. Our insurance company refuses to reimburse on the basis that this was a component failure. Nissan refused to consider the failure as warranty covered or as an abnormal failure.
