ON CHRISMAS DAY, MY FATHER AND I WERE DRIVING MY NISSAN PU ON ROUTE 29 IN VIRGINIA AT ABOUT 55 MPH. A SUDDEN AND SEVERE JERK WAS FELT TWICE AND WE PULLED OFF AND CHECKED THE TRUCK FOR DAMMAGE. NO OBVIOUS EXTERNAL DAMAGE WAS NOTED AT THAT TIME BUT THERE WAS A GRINDING NOISE NOTED WHEN TRUCK WAS PUT IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE LOW. NORMAL FUNCTION NOTED IN 4 HIGH AND 3 HIGH. ON 1/2/2001 AT DEALERSHIP ...THE LEFT FRONT 4X4 HUB COVER WAS NOTED TO BE MISSING AND THE HUB HAD SPIRAL CRACKS ALL AROUND IT. THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO CONFIRM THIS AS A TORQUE FRACTURE AND REFUSED TO ENTERTAIN ANY THOUGHT THAT THE TRUCK THEY HAD SOLD HAD MALFUNCTIONED. NOT ONLY WAS THIS INCIDENT SCARY BUT I AM JUST THANKFUL THAT MY FATHER AND I WERE NOT IN A HIGH SPEED ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS FAILURE. *AK
