Im having serious problems with my rogue. Bad vibration and shaking while braking. Aparently the bushings on my crossmember( also known as the subframe) are broke and they dont sell them separately. They sell the whole part for over $400. Im looking for a way around that. Looking for anybody that custom make them or anything. At this moment I cannot afford buying a new part like that. Any help would be appreciate it.

Junk yard ! ! ! or Add that to Santas list next year.
Not sure if this is correct, but someone should confirm this. When you do go to the junk yard, Look at some Altimas and see if the bushings fit. I doubt the sub frame would be the same but won't hurt to try it.

The Sentra uses different subframe, those bushings may not work.

Bebelo, are you sure you just don't have brake issues? If the subframe bushings were in fact broken, you would have alot more issues than just brake vibration, the car would almost be un-drivable!

Warped brake rotors will exhibit the exact same problems you are describing. I have already replaced the brake rotors on my Rogue for a similar vibration issue. Take your Rogue to any reputable automotive repair shop or a Nissan dealer and get them to check your brakes.
