Feathered Front Tires
I went into the dealer about 2-3 weeks ago, Spoke to the service manager and told him about everything I've done to the car, and it is still feathering!!
(had alignment check at 2000 miles, it was within specs. around 6500 miles noise start to generate, swap tires at 7000 miles. ) The service manager told me to put another 1000-2000 miles and they will double check after and possibly replace the tires. I told him that I spoke to the regional service & part manager for Nissan, and also the Technician trainers at NNA had help me did the alignment. I think that help a lot!
Went in again yesterday, got the service manager to write up an repair order to replace both front tires for me, and also the window streaks! I should have it replace sometime next week, and they supposed to re-align it again once the tires is replace. And from what I understand, that they supposed to bring in the toe and max it out ( // \\ ) . That's the fix they have for now? But Not sure if that would cure the feathering for sure or not, from my point of view? But we'll see? I will try to get the specs of my alignment when I get my tires replace.

I just took it to the dealer and they said that Discount tire will swap the tires. They also said I should expect to see some scratches, because the rims are hard to take tires off.
After they are swaped they then do the alignment. Which supposedly fixes the feathering.
