Description of the problem	Ive been trying to get the problems fixed with my new car. It has been shaking (steering wheel), on my 2004 nissan maxima since the day i bought it, april 8/2004 @ dobbs nissan memphis, tn. Ive had the car in 5 different car dealerships--- #1april 12/04 courtesy nissan inc., richardson, tx-- #2 april 14/04 dobbs nissan, memphis, tn---#3 may 7/04 carlock, tupelo, ms ---#4 may 17/04 crump nissan, jasper, al--- #5 columbus, ms numerous times. After 5 (five) sets tires, thats 20 (twenty) new tires, 12 being continental all weather and 8 bridgestone potenza s-03 and 10 (ten) balance jobs, i still have the problem. The car has around 10,000 miles now and about half of them were put on going to the dealers. I sent a registered letter may 25-2004 to consumers affairs, and then nissan flew in a technical specialist from ca. He took a few pictures of the tires. Guess what? It needed a balance job. Now, the dealer has 2 more tires ordered, ive had to get all these tires myself, but the last two. Im no technical specialist but i believe its the car not the tires. Looks like the lemon law is next!!!*ak
