The rear drivers side shackle blew apart resulting in the spring almost breaking though the bed metal. Had this happened at higher speed on a curve I feel the outcome would have been much more negative. I take exceptional care of my truck and do not exceed recommended loads or towing limits. I've owned seven different trucks in my lifetime and have never had any incident like this happen. I think Nissan needs to take a good, hard look at the type of materials and design involved in this bracket, as it should never have broken on a 3 year old truck, driven on-road with 58,000 miles on it. I find this to be extremely dangerous.
