        so I'm driving on the highway Friday afternoon in my very bland but reliable 2007 pathfinder and it starts to shake a bit.  A few seconds later I change lanes and it sounded like an explosion and then it felt like the front axle broke in half; scared the ever loving shit out of me.  I pulled over, got a tow, spoke to the service guy at Nissan and he says he is surprised I'm still alive because the u-joint snapped, broke the drive shaft which hit the floor of the car and apparently ripped the bottom of the car completely off and destroyed the whole belly of the car.

        Now, a rep from Nissan is going to the dealership Monday to take a look because they don't think this has ever happened before and they are going to decide if this should be covered under warranty.  If not, I'm looking at a minimum of 5k just in parts.  I have a feeling my asshole is going to be violated royally by Nissan on Monday…

              Jesus Baron!  Lucky you are okay.  I was once driving around a large roundabout and the rear drive wheel sheared off and i was doing 360's around the roundabout and slammed up against the kerb.  I'd had a drink, I was 18.  This cop turns up.  I'm thinking "o shit great now this is where i lose my licence bit".  I throw my head in my hands he goes "son you been drinking?" I shake my head no, he goes Hmm, turns to see my rear wheel rolling a hundred meters down the road "let me get you a tow truck"  Good luck on monday.

                      barun: I've seen our WAYWT pics… Just hold the service guy between your index finger and thumb and gently squeeze until its covered by your warranty...

                      Good luck lad!..

                              Barun, glad you are alright.  Beats idea might not be a bad one.  That could be your trump card.  Emphasize that your personal safety was paramount.  In this instance, you came close to risking your life and of others who were driving on the road.  A 4 year old car should not have this problem.
