Sounds like the problem that CodeRed experienced on his first Versa. Nissan was never able to find or repair the problem, and he ended up winning arbitration under his state's lemon law.

I hope your dealer is more competent.

If not, at least you and CodeRed are in the same state with the same lemon laws.

Are you feeling this as you go over a bump or while you are turning?CodeRed has a clunk sound over bumps, I'm having a problem of a knocking feel in my steering wheel when making left turns.

I feel it in my steering wheel when I go over a bump or when I drive over a dip in the road but only when turning not while im traveling straight forward, still not sure why and dont have the time to take it back to the dealer to have them give me a song and dance, so I might just live with it concidering its not a saftey issue and it has not got any worse it has just stayed the same.
