Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I bought the car used in 5/05 with 15,000 miles. tires appeared new when purchased. car is only driven in the winter, i had the "roaring" noise and vehicle shaking effect roughly 5 months later. i brought the car to the dealer and told them about the issue. their solution was to replace the front brakes and rotors for almost $400. i did not notice the problem again until a relative drove the car in the spring of 06 and thought i was crazy because i was apparently ignoring the roar and shake of the vehicle when traveling at speed under 40 mph. i replaced the rear tires at the suggestion of my local garage for over $500 yet the problem persisted. i now have to replace the front tires for another $500 or so and the car only has 32000 miles. i have read the numerous (hundreds) complaints written about this problem and this is just ridiculous. why should nissan's shoddy engineering be my responsibility to fix? go to www.nissantireproblems.com and register for the class action suit......*jb
