| Description of the problem | I have taken my 2004 350z into the irvine nissan dealership twice about the front tire noise making growling sounds. The work report only lists that there is tire ware, but no mention of my complaint about the tires. Documented oil change, tire wear, and suggest allignment (but would charge me for it). Took the car in a second time, and describbed the issue again. They refused to acknowledge the tires as an issue on 2004 vehicles, and stated on the vehicle work order order that they advised me about the tsb for 2003, and the condition does not exist on 2004. Argued with the manager who says they took the car for a drive to test the noise, but would still not do anything. Manager hung up on me. The vehicle still has the noise. |
