What owners wrote

I was driving normal speed limit 60 MPH on the fwy when we heard a noise like a big pop sound. Right away when I tried to slow down to get over ( when I applied the brake) the steering wheel began shaking so bad that I was unable to control the wheel. It felt as if the brakes weren't working. The car spun out of control and crashed in the carpool divider. This was a brand new nissan altima 2010 coupe with 60k miles on the car.
