 Description of the problemThis is a formal complaint to the tires/wheels that nissan has selected for placement on the 2012 nissan quest. The toyo a22 235/55/18 tires are completely worn at 26,000 miles. We did not discover the issue with the tires until a third party inspected the vehicle. The vehicle will not pass inspection. All service has occurred at a nissan authorized dealer at the recommended intervals. The service groups at sheehy nissan and grapevine nissan did not alert us to the dangers. I have spoken with nissan regional consumer affairs and alerted them to the concern and issues surrounding the rapid wear. It is our belief that the nissan quest is to heavy for the tires that were selected on the vehicle, and/or the tire is defective. Nissan regional consumer affairs has decided not to intervene, or assist on our behalf. According to nissan employee [xxx],nissan does not have information on the toyo a22 tire,or knowledge of weight characteristics&what constitutes abnormal wear. When explaining i was recording the call she abruptly hung up. She did state that the tire was soft&did not have a warranty. In addition, she stated that nissan does not have any responsibility to the consumer regarding the tires,& that the entire matter is toyo's responsibility. I requested to speak with a supervisor & was denied. I asked if the complaint could be reported. She said there was no other mechanism to report this within nissan. According to toyo the a22 235/55/18 tire is a custom part manufactured to nissan specs. After conducting an internet search there are many mentions of nissan quest tires wearing early. My belief is that nissan has not accurately calculated the vehicle weight correctly,&has chosen tires that can jeopardize the safety of the passengers&motorists. An additional complaint for toyo is being filed stating that the tire is not robust enough for the vehicle weight it is handling. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
