2004 Nissan MAXIMA Tires Sidewall Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	603795
Internal NHTSA #	10169337
Manufacurer	NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	MAXIMA
Model Year	2004
File date	23/09/06
Component	TIRES:SIDEWALL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	All 4 tires of my nissan 2004 (first owner) develop cracks on sidewalls, not sure when cracks developed however, based on 1/8" wide crack (gap) on right rear inside tire, crack must have started between 25,000 & 30,000 miles , all along perimeter where sidewall meets tread. Tire size (original equipment manufacturer) p245-45-r18, goodyear eagle rs-a. Dealer (central valley nissan, modesto ca). Condition of tires are obviously a sign of structural defect. Tires can explode at any time and should not be driven until new tires have been placed. Dealerships should be notified to watch for conditions on models that were sold with this particular tire. I found the condition myself and unfortunately have never been warned by the dealer who sold me the vehicle. I believe many others with the same type of tire are at risk today and not aware of the impending consequence. *jb
