Ether you do or you don`t... does it look like feathering? is it on the inside of the tires? the reason I asking cause I beleive almost all of the feathering is acurring on the inner side.
I too have an 2004 coupe I have 8000 miles and i`am keeping a close aye ..
all looks good..Keep us informed as to what happens at the dealer.. GOOD LUCK!

Greetings,
The Idiots working at the Nissan dealership service dept. on Bee Ridge Road in Sarasota are going to cause me to trade my 04’ z in on a different brand car at a better dealership. Pardon my words but I am upset about this.
I took my car in for it’s 1st routine check up with 3k miles on it. The service person (Lucy) said that I needed a front end alignment and the tires were showing abnormal wear for a car with 3k miles on it. When I brought it in for it’s alignment on its scheduled date, today 5-10-05. Lucy, my service person, told me they will look at it and see if it needs an alignment for $65.00.
Why did she tell me it need one if they have to check it? Also I need to know why, if my car does not need the alignment after they check. They are still going to charge me! This is not customer service.
And further more Why is this not covered under Factory Warranty when this is a known problem at the Factory on these cars especially in the 03’ model. I only have 3k miles on the car for crying out loud, and it is undoubtedly not the rims or tires that have caused this problem. This is nothing more than standard Factory mistakes that happens with all new cars and In Nissans fairness, They have been correcting the problem in other cases which is documented. Why am I having trouble getting mine correct?
All I am asking is the re-alignment of the front end as need to correct the Factory Problem.

The service person does not know here a*** from a hole in the ground. All alignments are fully covered by the Nissan warrenty for the first 12 months or 12 thousand miles period. You should not have to pay anything.

I took my 04 in at 5k miles with no problem and free of chargeso I'd check that one out !
Pity I cant see zexy
As for me ...Ok so the resolve is they told me at 14k I am out of warranty and need to buy tires (out of my pocket) - Nissan Consumer Affairs got a hold of my case because I got a message from them late Friday. I'll be calling them back on Monday to see whats up
