| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: This may not be a nissan exclusive strategy. consider this to be a wake up call and a potential for other "ford-tire supplier" potential upcoming scenario. the goodyear's eagle ls2 225/60/17 ultra high performance are oem and even after following nissan's computerized reminding schedules for tire rotation every 7500 miles, these tires (i have not met an exception yet, go to tirerack.com to mention one source for instance and read these tires' reviews.... not coincidentally, most of the complaints you'll read are quest minivan owners) are wearing fast and not at same rate (when compared fr to rr..like i said even after proper p.m and too fast for average drivers like moms) the laughable matter on all this is that : a) these minivans are driven by moms. b) these minivans per design have ultra high performance tires (like moms are a bunch of street teens or drag racers). c) oem recommended size are extremely hard to find (almost like a well planned monopoly by auto manufacturer and tire supplier) if you go to the optional oem size 225/65/16 you will worsen the already questionable fuel efficiency of this quest vehicle line. d) goodyear laughs at customers like me when bringing my "sooner than expected" tire wear out conditions and they openly admit that they have no idea why nissan required these eagle ls2 to be oem equipment. there are goodyear retailers that don't even adventure on selling them. e) addressing tire warranty issues is a problem that has to be re-invented. vehicle manufacturers will not do anything for you as they recommend you to bring it up to certified tire manufacturer retailers...another huge headache for average joe (and a subject for other investigation). i am a ee for one automobile manufacturer, if nhtsa is really interested on protecting the american consumer by enforcing the treat act, please listen to early symptoms like what i am presenting to you here. *nm |
