PASSENGER SIDE REAR LEAF SPRING FOUND TO BE BROKEN AT INSPECTION AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. OFF WARRANTY AT 57,000 MILES AND A WEEK LATER DRIVER SIDE LEAF SPRING COMPLETELY BROKE WHILE DRIVING ON 65MPH ON HIGHWAY NEARLY CAUSING A SERIOUS CRASH,. HAD TO HAVE VEHICLE TOWED. DEALERSHIP- WRIGHT NISSAN IN WEXFORD PA OPENLY ADMITS ITS A DEFECTIVE PART ISSUE AND THERE IS NO WAY I COULD HAVE DONE THIS AS THE VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN OFF-ROAD AND ITS THE PRO-4 OFFROAD VERSION OF THE VEHICLE. THEY TOLD ME THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN, YET I WAS OFF 36K WARRANTY AND STILL HAD TO PAY FOR IT. I AM REQUESTING A RECALL ON THOSE PARTS. IT IS A BIG SAFETY HAZARD. *TR
