Walked outside to notice something was loose and hanging underneath my car. After taking my car to the local nissan dealership, they told me that my stabilizer (sway bar) was broken and would cost nearly $400 to replace. After receiving the news, I decided to research and found that a myriad of people are experiencing the same problem. I would really appreciate this issue being taken care of without having to come out pocket, considering that my driving couldn't have caused this.

Heard a loud pop while driving forward, pulled over only to find a broken stabilizer bar, hanging on the rear driver side. Looked on the web to find many people having the same problem. Part is defective, called nissan told it would be about $500.00. Owned many different cars and never ever had a stabilizer bar just break. Very disappointed with nissan america....

While walking to the vehicle an object was seen hanging down from behind the left drivers side rear wheel area. After crawling under the vehicle to investigate I positively confirmed the rear sway bar was broken off right at the bushing. The driver side end of this bar is still attached at the linkage rods, but is completely broken off from the rest of the sway bar at the left side bushing and bracket. Please force nissan to step up to the plate and at least issue a service bulletin if they are too stubborn to issue a recall. Make them agree in writing to dump the manufacturer of this inferior hollow part. Judging by the numerous broken 2007 altima sway bar complaints, there is an apparent quality problem here.

The rear sway bar broke while driving under normal conditions. It prompted me to get online to see if there were any problems with this issue. It seems that there is an engineering defect in the product as thousands of altima owners have attested to the same problem with the sway bar. And, they all seem to break in the same place. Why is this not a recall issue? It's certainly dangerous enough driving down the road with a piece of pipe hanging down dragging on the road. I do not understand why nissan is not held to a higher standard or expectation, and why so many owners are having to pay to get a defective engineered product fixed. Come on guys...do something about this before someone gets killed. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Sway bar broke without any collision and with normal use. This does not normally happen with other cars. The sway bar is hollow unlike others and may be the reason for the problem. This is a common problem that is on many nissan forums online.

Was at the repair shop picking up my other car when the mechanic noticed something hanging from the bottom of my car. He threw the car up on a lift and discovered that it was a broken sway bar. He was shocked and said he'd never seen or heard of anything like that. I have no idea of the safety implications, but after a quick search online it seems as if there are hundreds of others with this same problem. When will nissan get its act together and recall this?

For no apparent reason the rear stabilizer bar snapped on my 2007 nissan altima. The bar itself is hollow which surprised me. Believe this is a faulty nissan part since my driving is not aggressive in any way and I did not hit anything or run through a pot hole or curb that might cause this kind of damage. Recommend nissan issue a technical service bulletin or recall on this part for safety reasons. This compromises safe handling to some degree.
