Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I currently own a 2004 nissan 350z and i'm experiencing a problem with severe front tire feathering. i have made nissan aware of this problem which cause a loud roaring noise and vibration during braking. i originally thought the problem was my brakes but after just 10k000 miles replaced the front brakes and realized this did not fix the problem. after my second time to the dealership i was informed that my front tires were no longer good and need to be replaced at just under 14000 miles. i was told that this was a design flaw with the tires and possibly a toeing problem with the nissan 350z's. i registered a complaint to nissan at 1800-nissan-1 and it doesn't seem as though they will resolve this problem. this problem also occured with 2003 350z's.*ak
