Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 350z tire feathering and cupping. severe feathering due to improper factory alignment specs on early model 350zs. noticed at 8,000 miles and got progressively worse. they say there is a tsb to cross swap tires, but this leaves the original tires with feathering on the car. a safety issue to me whether nissan will own up to it or not. after this is solved cupping will occur due to the camber and caster being unadjustable. the only know 100% fix to this is a nismo s-tune suspension or possible to replace front suspension with later model suspension systems. why would nissan not fix this problem? they say it isn't big enough or its not a safety issue. is it going to take death to fix this problem like adding stop lights to an intersection. "we will only recall if 3 people die first" is what nissan should be saying! very unhappy consumer and will never by a nissan again! -vin *la |
