Steering problem #1

When approaching an intersection to turn left, although I had my foot on the brake, the car wasn't slowing, speed was the same. When I began to turn the wheel, the steering wheel kept jerking right. It felt like something had locked up. The brakes continued to be ineffective and because the steering kept jerking to the right on a left turn, it rammed into the curb and caused injury to myself.

Steering problem #2

Vehicle steering feels like it is hydroplaning on dry roads during highway speeds from time to time or like suddenly being hit with a gust of wind from the side on calm days and begins to swerve. Have to let off gas and grab wheel with both hands feels like steering has lost control while wheel is being held straight, this has happened multiple times since I got the vehicle (maybe once a month on average). After several visits to Nissan repair service for the same problem Nissan claims they have not experienced the problem while test driving and there is nothing wrong with the car. My wife will no longer drive the car as she does not feel safe, and after this happened to me again last week nearly causing an accident, I am ready to park the vehicle at the dealer and walk away there is something seriously wrong with the steering on this vehicle since day one, and Nissan refuses to acknowledge the problem or correct the issue.
