2007 Nissan Versa suspension problems

“DUE TO RUST CORROSION ON THE UNDERNEATH FRAME AND CARRIAGE OF THIS VEHICLE, THE CONTROL ARM ON BOTH SIDES HAS SNAPPED OUT OF PLACE. THIS HAS AFFECTED MY STEERING CAPABILITIES. IT ALSO ALMOST CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY. I AM LUCKY TO BE ALIVE. THE VEHICLE IS WITH MY MECHANIC AND I WILL INCLUDE AS MANY PICTURES AS I CAN. THE RECALL STATES THAT THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE VEHICLE MAY HAVE UNNECESSARY RUST AND UNFORTUNATELY MY PIN NUMBER HAS BEEN INVOLVED. THE RUST CORROSION IS SO SEVERE THAT THE FRAME IS LITERALLY ROTTING COMPLETELY OUT. THERE IS HOLES YOU CAN SEE THROUGH ALL OVER THE FRAME OF THIS VEHICLE. I FEEL AS THOUGH NISSAN NOT ONLY PUT MY IMMEDIATE LIFE IN DANGER BUT ALSO MANY OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD AS WELL. I WAS IN THE AIR FORCE AND THEY ARE REACTIVATING ME BACK INTO SERVICE DUE TO THE COVID. PROBLEM IS THAT I NO LONGER HAVE A VEHICLE THAT WILL GET ME FROM OHIO DOWN TO MISSISSIPPI.”

“THE PIECES ON THE DOOR HANDLE OF 2007, SEEM TO POP OUT OVER TIME. DRIVE SIDE KEY ENTRY AND THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. I KNOW OF THREE NISSAN VERSA'S HAVE CAUGHT FIRE AND ALL FROM THE CAVALIER CONVERTER... THE HEATER CORE HAS SOME ISSUES. THIS CAR HAD AN AIRBAG RECALL AND I DON'T BELIEVE MY AIRBAGS WERE REPLACED. I WAS TOLD THAT BOTH SIDE'S AIRBAGS WERE DONE. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WOULD TAKE THREE WEEKS TO A MONTH TO REPAIR. WHEN I TOLD THEM THAT I WOULD HAVE TO BE COMPENSATED FOR MY CAR DOWNTIME BECAUSE I DO UBER. IT WAS DONE IN TWO DAYS. THE CLOCK SPRING WENT OUT IN MY CAR. I DO NOT HAVE A LOT OF PICTURES, BUT I CAN GO IN MY FILE AND FINE THEM. THANKS FOR ANY HELP ON THESE ISSUES. THE AIRBAGS WERE DONE AT THE END OF 2017 AND I DIDN'T KNOW I COULD DO WHAT I'M DOING TODAY. I WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO PAID TO GET MY AIRBAGS CHECKED OUT. OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS, I'VE HAD SO MANY ISSUES WITH MY CAR. I'VE SPENT OVER 2.000.00 OR MORE. I'VE LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT MY CAR FROM GOOGLE AND YOUTUBE. THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP IN THIS MATTER.”

“THE FRONT COIL SPRING BROKE IN TWO IMPALING MY FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE AND LOCKING UP MY FRONT END RESULTING IN A LOSE OF CONTROL WHILE DRIVING. AFTER HAVING MY VEHICLE TOWED AND REPAIRED I LEARNED OF A RECALL BY NISSAN WHICH I HAD NO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF BECAUSE I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED UNTIL AFTER THE INCIDENT. NISSAN HAS REPEATEDLY DENIED TO REIMBURSE ME FOR REPAIRS IN DIRECT VIOLATION NUMEROUS SECTIONS OF 49CFR PART 573.13”
