| Description of the problem | I own a nissan 350z 2004 roadster touring edition and the tires on the front have been replaced at 16,000+ because the inside tread became extremely worn. While in the dealership they told me about an alignment problem that nissan was reviewing. They claimed to have fixed the alignment problem, free of charge, but i had to replace the tires. I'm now at 31,115 and the same problem has occurred again. The front and back tires look new from the outside, but on the inside tread the tires were showing severe signs of wear. I believe there is a serious alignment issue... If i would not have fish tail my car i might not have had the car looked at. A potential accident waiting to happen with this car. *jb |
