2004 Nissan Maxima

STEERING WHEEL SHIMMIES AT SPEEDS FROM 50-80 MPH AND ALSO SHIMMIES HARSHLY WHEN BRAKING AT LOWER SPEEDS. I HAD THIS IN FOR REPAIR TWICE SO FAR. THE FIRST TIME THEY TURNED THE ROTORS. THE NEXT TIME THEY ROTATED THE TIRES. ALSO, HAD GPS/NAV SYSTEM IN FOR REPAIR THREE TIMES TO DATE. THE DVD WAS REPROGRAMMED THE FIRST TIME AND REPLACED TWICE. I'M GETTING READY TO FILE A LEMON LAW COMPLAINT. *NM

I AM EXPERIENCING SEVERE VIBRATIONS IN THE STEERING OF MY 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA. IN MARCH OF 2004 AFTER SEVERAL TRIPS FOR ROTATIONS AND BALANCING, ALL FOUR TIRES WERE CRACKED ON THE ENTER WALL OF THE TIRES. NISSIAN SUGGESTED THAT I GO TO GOODYEAR DEALER AND HAVE THE TIRES REPLACED. GOODYEAR REPLACED THE TIRES AND FIVE MONTHS LATER, ALL FOUR TIRES HAVE CRACKED AGAIN. WE QUESTIONED NISSIAN TO SEE IF THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE THAT WAS CAUSING THE TIRES TO CRACK. NISSIAN ADVISE ANY PROBLEM CONCERING THE TIRES SHOULD BE TAKEN UP WITH GOODYEAR AND SAID IT WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. AT THIS TIME, AUGUST 17, 2004 I STILL HAVE ALL FOUR CRACKED TIRES ON MY VEHICLE AND IT IS VIBRATING EVEN MORE. GOODYEAR ADVISED THAT THE ONLY SET OF TIRES MADE FOR THIS VEHICLE IS GOODYEAR EAGLE RS-AP245/45R18. GOODYEAR ADVISED US THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THIS TIRE IN STOCK AND IT WILL BE ABOUT A WEEK OR SO BEFORE THEY CAN GET IT. I WAS INFORMED THAT THEY HAVE REPLACED SEVERAL TIRES FOR THIS YEAR MAKE AND MODEL CAR. *JB

I AM EXPERIENCING SEVERE VIBRATIONS IN THE STEERING OF MY NEW 2004 MAXIMA. AFTER SEVERAL TRIPS FOR ALIGNMENT, ROTATIONS AND BALANCING - I WAS ADVISED I HAD A BAD TIRE BY THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER. THEY SUGGESTED I GO TO THE LOCAL GOOD YEAR DEALER AND HAVE THE TIRE REPLACED. UPON ARRIVING AT THE GOOD YEAR DEALER - I WAS INFORMED THAT THEY HAD REPLACED SEVERAL TIRES FOR THE YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL AND IT WAS SUGGESTED THAT THERE WAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT IN THE DESIGN OF THE CAR AND IT'S ABILITY TO ABSORB OSCILLATION OF THE TIRE.*AK

I HAVE A 2004 MAXIMA WITH LESS THAN 1500 MILES. THERE IS A NOISE APPARENTLY COMING FROM THE TIRES THAT SOUNDS LIKE A RINGING NOISE. WHEN GOING OVER A LINE CRACK IN THE PAVEMENT OR BUMP BETWEEN 20-50 MPH IT SOUNDS LIKE A HOLLOW RINGING SOUND. I UPGRADED TIRES FROM FACTORY INSTALLED TO MICHELINS AT ABOUT $500 MORE AND THE RINGING CONTINUES. WHAT GIVES? *NM
