AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, WHILE ACCELERATING, MY SUV STARTED ROCKING FROM SIDE TO SIDE. I HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKES IN ORDER FOR IT TO STOP ROCKING. IT FELT AS IF MY SUV WAS GOING TO ROLLOVER EVEN THOUGH I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT AND AT THE SPEED LIMIT. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. IT HAPPENED THIS MORNING WHILE DRIVING AROUND 55 MPH ON A STRAIGHT HIGHWAY. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHILE ON A CURVE BUT IS EVEN WORSE AT THAT POINT. *TR

I FILLED UP MY VEHICLE WITH GAS AND WHEN I WAS DRIVING I COULD SMELL GAS SOMEWHERE - SO I ONLY FILLED IT HALF FULL AFTER THAT. I WENT TO BERGSTROM OF OSHKOSH, WISCONSIN TO GET A DIFFERENT RECALL REPAIRED (I THINK IT WAS ABOUT A YEAR AGO) HAVING TO DO WITH THE STEERING. THEY KEPT MY VEHICLE FOR 4 MONTHS AND FINALLY FIXED IT. THEY SAID THAT I ALSO HAD A RECALL ON THE GAS NECK OF THE VEHICLE AND THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX IT BUT THAT THEY WOULD CALL ME. IT'S BEEN OVER A YEAR NOW AND THEY STILL HAVE NOT CALLED ME TO GET IT FIXED. I CAN ONLY FILL MY TANK ONLY HALF WAY. THIS IS UNSAFE AND NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1998 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO WOBBLE AND THE DRIVER FELT LIKE SHE WAS GOING TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE OCURRED WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS AS WELL, BUT THE DEGREE OF WOBBLING WAS LESSER. THE VEHICLE WOBBLED SO MUCH THAT THE PASSENGERS BECAME QUEASY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSIS AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED NEW BUSHINGS, CONTROL ARMS, AND STRUTS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OFFERED LITTLE ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 180,000.
