VEHICLE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SHIMMY WHEN BRAKING. TOOK TO DEALER FOR REPAIR AND WAS TOLD (AT 3700 MILES) THAT THE ROTORS WERE WARPED. ALL THEY COULD DO WAS RESURFACE THE ROTORS AT THIS TIME. I WAS INFORMED IT WAS A "QUICK FIX" AND WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN. NOW, THE VEHICLE HAS 6300 MILES AND IS BACK IN SERVICE FOR THE SAME THING. THIS TIME THEY ARE REPLACING THE ROTORS/PADS. YET, THEY WILL HAVE MY CAR THERE FOR 2 WEEKS. I GUESS I WILL SEE THEM AGAIN IN ABOUT ANOTHER 2500 MILES OR SO. MY ARMADA IS NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS IS HAPPENING TO, I KNOW…

WE PURCHASED VEHICLE NEW IN NOVEMBER OF 2003 WITH ONLY 10 MILES ON ODOMETER. AFTER FIVE MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP AND ONLY 6,280 MILES, THE FRONT WHEELS BEGAN TO SHIMMY REALLY BAD DURING BRAKING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THE FRONT ROTORS WERE WARPED. THE REASON OR LOGIC THEY GAVE WAS THIS WAS PROBABLY DUE TO THE ROTORS BECOMING WET AND HEATED UNDER BRAKING DURING THE RAINY PERIOD. THE REPAIR FOR THIS PROBLEM WAS TO REMOVE THE FROM TIRES AND DO AN ON VEHICLE TURN OF THE ROTORS AS I WAITED WHICH TOOK ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF. …

THE VEHICLE STEERING WHEEL KEPT ON VEERING TO THE RIGHT WHILE VEHICLE IN OCCUPYING AND GOT WORSE AT BRAKING. I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL FIRMLY AND VEER IT TO THE LEFT IN ORDER TO KEEP THE VEHICLE RUNNING STRAIGHT. THIS WILL CAUSE HUNDRED OF DOLLARS TO FIX AND COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO PEOPLE WHO DRIVING IT. THE DEALER SAID THIS IS NORMAL CROWN DRIFT AND DON'T DO ANYTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAD CONTACTED NISSAN MANUFACTURE CONCERN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. NISSAN ADDRESSED ALL VEHICLES ARE SUPPOSED TO SLIGHTLY VEER TO…
