Default tire feathering

for those of you who have experienced tire feathering, how do i address the tire feathering issue to a dealer so that they may give me new tires? I am still under the 3/36 warranty.

Umm, they won't replace the tires even if you still have less than 36k miles. When I had my car a year ago with about 28k they wouldn't replace. You have to have less than I want to say 12k miles? Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

After I got new tires (not the Potenzas) and got an alignment, I haven't had a problem.

Well... The dealership told me they would not replace my tires under warranty because it had too many miles on it to comply with the TSB that was sent out.

But... I replaced my tires and got a lifetime alignment and Nissan sent out something in the mail about reimbursement if you purchased front tires and alignments as well. I did receive money for my tires and alignment as well. I guess you can say thats how they handled it. Not sure if there was a deadline or not.
