Suspension Troubles

Hi everybody.
I don't post much but thought I would share. This weekend I took my 2017 Maxima SL in to the dealer because of horrible sounds coming from my suspension. Squeaking, thumping, clanking sounds. They later told me that both front and rear tie rods were stripped. The threading on both were completely stripped. My car is only two years old with 12k miles on it. It was covered under warranty. Obviously this shouldn't be happening. The services advisors weren't too concerned even though he said he doesn't see this. I for some reason have bad luck with Nissan suspensions.....My previous car, an 07 Altima, had to have the shocks and struts replaced before 30k. It's not like I am off-roading in these cars, LOL. Hope no one else has these issues but I would definitely have your suspensions checked from time to time to be on the safe side.

Thanks for the "heads up"! Not sure this type of repair has been very common in the field. Hopefully you are done with repairs for awhile.
