| Description of the problem | Oem tires (bridgestone potenza re040) on my nissan 350z started feathering on the inside of both front tires around 6000 miles. Noticed the sound had gotten more noticable around 11000 miles. Took vehicle into nissan at 12548 miles and was told that nissan had a problem with the front end on the 2003 model, but that it had been corrected. Heard from another source that there were several 2004 350z cars that had the same problem. |
