Driving truck got so bad it was hard to keep in road. . Would go side to side on highway and turns were not easy to say in lane. Took to clarktire CO . . They replaced lots of parts and said mounts for shocks and struts were pretty badly rusted causing excessive movement of those.

My 2001 Nissan Pathfinder se 145,169 miles at the time. (this noise began around 120,000k miles). Now I have only 1k more out of necesity. Front right side(drivers side ) began to make a thumping sound. Soon after the sound both sides were making the same thunp. I can feel every bump and crack in road and steering feels way off. The service center told me both front struts were bad and the upper mounts were rusty and need replaced for safety issues as well as ride of truck. I have my estimate at $740. 00. At this time I cannot afford the cost of this repair. Nissan has sent a letter hinting to a future recall, but they said they would contact me later. What am I supposed to do? drive until the struts blow!!!! unacceptable to send a recall notice to be determined. Thank you.
