Ever since I first purchased the car it wants to die and it seems like it doesn't want to go when I press the gas. It does this when I stop or when I press the gas.

While in motion the passenger side ball joint did break. This allowed the wheel to become non responsive and caused the drive axle to break. If the vehicle was going at highway speed at the time, there would have been a severe accident to say the least.

Since purchase, and regardless of the number of times I have taken the vehicle in for servicing at the dealership, the car 'pulls' to the left while driving.naturally, my concern is that there is something more inherently wrong with the suspension or steering. This problem has been ongoing since I purchased the vehicle as certified from nissan poughkeepsie. The dealership has not yet been able to pinpoint the exact cause.

20013 nissan sentra with less than 75k miles. Making a left turn and heard a loud pop. Left front ball joint broke off the lower control arm causing the control arm to smash through the tire rim and rip out the axle from the transmission. My vehicle was traveling at less than 5 MPH (thank god!) I would not have reported this but I saw the same thing happened to another car. I jacked it up immediately and car was flatbedded to mechanic and control arms on both sides, ball joints and axle was replaced.

T am in an active bankruptcy so I can't replace the car because the car dealership will approve me for a loan that has 18 percent interest. This is cost me a lot of stress.
