Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2005 nissan pathfinder suv becomes very unstable at highway speeds when hitting a bump. the truck rocks violently diagonally and the vehicle sways out of the lane. the truck bottoms out constantly since it was new with no load in it. after several close calls i feel its time to notify someone. i plan on bringing it to the dealer this week. i don't know how much they can do..i think its a design flaw. i drive a ford escape every day to work. it also has independent suspension, it never...never bottoms out or becomes uncontrollable after hitting a bump. *nm
