Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2002 nissan, altima that came with continential tires. the tires size is 200/65-16's. they have 28k wear on them . i took the car to the dealer because i noticed that my car was pulling to the right. after an alignment, the car is pulling to the left. now the dealer is telling me that its my tires, that i need to replace the 2 front tires because of wear. this seems out of line to me because i have never had tires wear to the point that they need to be replace to put my car in alignment. i believe these tires should wear (they get normal highway and neighborhood use) for at least 45k-50k before needing to be replaced. what is wrong with this picture?*ak
