2004 Nissan Armada

I was driving along on the freeway after replacing the rear control arms as those were rusted out as well and the driver side wheel started wobbling so I pulled over with the family in it to look, and the bearing had come loose after fixing the bearing at a shop nearby driving down the road. It still felt like it was wobbling brought it into the shop looked underneath, and the subframe is actually cracked, though it states that this recall had been complete completed.

After making a left turn I heard a loud popping sound from the rear of the vehicle so I continued driving at about 20mph. for about another 350 yds. While making a right turn into my apartment. I heard a loud clanked sound. I looked and saw that the upper control arm on the rear drivers side had broke apart due to rust. Luckily I was only pulling into my apartment. I was quite disturbed by this incident because I had just gotten off the interstate with my family in the vehicle with me..

THE MAJOR CONTROL ARMS OF THE VEHICLE ARE SEVERELY RUSTED WHILE OTHER STEEL IN CLOSE PROXIMITY IS NOT. WE FOUND A RECALL FOR 1996-2004 NISSAN PATHFINDERS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE: 'CAMPAIGN ID #: R1107 'NHTSA #:11V-244 'APPLIED VEHICLES:1996-2004 PATHFINDER (R50) NISSAN NORTH AMERICAN TOLD US THAT THIS RECALL DOES NOT APPLY TO OUR VEHICLE. WE BELIEVE THAT THE COMPONENTS USED ON OUR VEHICLE WERE PROBABLY PRODUCED BY THE SAME MANUFACTURER AS THE RECALLED COMPONENTS AND THEREFORE HAVE THE SAME ISSUES. THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE THAT WE SPOKE WITH WOULD NEITHER CONFIRM NOR DENY THIS. ( MARIANA 615-725-5879) SHE COULD ONLY CONFIRM THAT THE RECALL DID NOT APPLY TO OUR NISSAN.
