Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: After 14,000 mi, car started to growl from the front. took it to the dealer, they said that it could be alignment and advised us to drive some more miles. at 24,000 the noise got louder, we took it back to the dealer, they said that front tires were worn out and we had to pay pro-rate on the tires. at 35,000, we received a letter from nissan saying about tires problem: early wear and tear. we came back to the dealer they said they would order the front tires and did not know how long they would be shipped and we still had to pay for pro-rate on the tires. should we pay pro-rate for the tires as the dealer said? we would not buy this car if we knew wheel alignment would be the problem. should nissan cover all expenses for us? we don't like the dealer anyway. they have very bad service and unprofessional. paul miller nissan 930 kings hwy e fairfield, ct 06825 tel.
