Front Suspension Stabilizer Bar problems of the 2007 Nissan Altima

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. . . .

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.

Just found out the rear stabilizer bar #56230-ja10a was broken.

Rear stabilizing bar just broke out of nowhere, the car did not hit anything to cause this to brake.

Rear sway/stabilizer bar broken under normal driving conditions.

The rear stabilizer bar snapped in half during normal driving conditions - no fast corners, potholes, bumps, etc.

Looked at the car and saw something hanging from the bottom. Brought it to a mechanic and found that the sway bar, sometimes called the stabilizer bar, broke in half. The car was not in an accident. I searched the internet and found that other people have had the same problem with the Nissan Altima 2007.

Rear stabilizer bar (aka sway bar) snapped on driver's side. Was turning right from a stop and heard a "sprung" noise but thought it was just a small pothole. A week later, noticed something hanging under the car - it was part of the bar. No rust under the car whatsoever - failure due to corrosion would be highly unlikely. Metal fatigue, manufacturer defect, or under-engineered suspension design are more likely. Body roll a bit more pronounced than before the incident, but vehicle is still safe to drive in its current state. Car out of warranty. Purchased aftermarket replacement part and will be installing it myself.

The rear stabilizer bar on my 2007 Altima broke on the driver side. I was traveling 55mph in a curve on the highway. After inspection of the stabilizer bar I found that it was hollow. I have found a host of complaints on the internet for the same model sway bar breaking.

The left rear stabilizer bar failed for no apparent reason.

The stabilizer sway bar for the Nissan Altima just broke on its own under normal conditions. I was just driving going speed limit on a local road and the bar snapped. Although I had an accident with this vehicle 4 years ago, the car still ran smoothly because it was minor. The bar snapped on its own and we drive this vehicle with care.
