Default All over the road.

Hello everyone. I am new to the forum. I just purchased an 08 Altima SL in February. I had a 96 Maxima before that and it was simply the best car I ever owned. It had 217,000 when I sold it and it was still running strong. I sometimes wish I would have kept it a little longer... Anyway, I noticed that the Altima shifts all over the road at 55+ MPH when there is even a slight breeze. Is this normal? I never felt this in any other car I owned, at least not this dramatic. It is really hard to keep the car straight on the interstate. I took it to the dealer and they test drove it and said there is nothing wrong. The stupid service adviser said, "it is probably due to the speed sensitive steering." I know about this technology and it shouldn't cause this. I really think my steering is loose or something. Any suggestions? I also have a driver's seat that shifts slightly when I take corners...just enough to be annoying. They said it was fine too. This car is not what I hoped for!!

I would DEFINITELY bring it to the dealer to have it checked. That is not usual. My car doesn't do that even at 70 M.P.H.
My seat doesn't drift, nor does my car's steering feel loose. Try a different dealer.

Welcome to the forums, and I hope you are liking the Altima even though it is having some problems. Haha.
