I'm looking into buying a 2005 Z, about 10,000 miles. Wondering if I should be worried about tire feathering. I know it was an area for concern in 2003 and 2004, not sure if they fixed it by 2005.

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

it was fixed mid 04, you are safe.

 

Compared to the number of posts by the '03 and '04 owners who had the problem, there were hardly any '05 owners claiming to have it.

I had it on my '04 and since the TSB was performed (16K miles ago) I've seen no signs that the problem still exists.

 

i had the problem when i first got my car. noticed extreme wear the first 6k miles. had the dealer align my car and hav about 22k now with no problems.

 

My 2004 is at 26000 miles, I thought that I was lucky without the feathering problem on mine.
I brought it to dealer for service, and they called me saying that my front tires have uneven wear, so they will
replace them and re-alingnment for free.
Isn't that sweet for dealer to do it for the customer.
If you are in bay area, you might be interested to know
the dealer is Stevens Creek Nissan.

 

I still have my stock tires on my 05. Running at almost 33k miles and no feathering shown.
