I started to experienced severe shaking, from side to side while driving on highway, on several occasions, effecting my steering and handling of the vehicle, when either changing lanes or when I hit a slight bump in the road. I honestly started to believe my car was about to roll over, thus causing injury to myself and possibly others while driving on the highway. I then decided to make an appointment with my local nizzan dealaship to find the problem. I was told, that the left apron assembly & left closingplate was severely rotted out and split apart due to corrosion, which lead to the failure of my driver's side front strut tower, which in turn affects the vehicle's aliignment. To correct this problem, I took my car to a local autobody shop and had to replace both parts that I described aboved, along with bolted on parts, an undercoating spray to prevent any future corrosion and the labor cost charged involved.

When towing a camper with my 1996 Nissan Pathfinder the shocks gave out and caused the body of the car to drop down to rub on the wheels. After disconnecting the camper the body rose up to normal position and I looked under the vehicle and discovered that the frame area over the rear wheels on both sides is completely rotted. Checking my son-in-laws 1995 Pathfinder I discovered that his was as bad or worse than mine.
