NHTSA Complaint #10172136 — 2003 NISSAN 350Z

I BOUGHT THE CAR USED IN 5/05 WITH 15,000 MILES. TIRES APPEARED NEW WHEN PURCHASED. CAR IS ONLY DRIVEN IN THE WINTER, I HAD THE "ROARING" NOISE AND VEHICLE SHAKING EFFECT ROUGHLY 5 MONTHS LATER. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE ISSUE. THEIR SOLUTION WAS TO REPLACE THE FRONT BRAKES AND ROTORS FOR ALMOST $400. I DID NOT NOTICE THE PROBLEM AGAIN UNTIL A RELATIVE DROVE THE CAR IN THE SPRING OF 06 AND THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY BECAUSE I WAS APPARENTLY IGNORING THE ROAR AND SHAKE OF THE VEHICLE WHEN TRAVELING AT SPEED UNDER 40 MPH. I REPLACED THE REAR TIRES AT THE SUGGESTION OF MY LOCAL GARAGE FOR OVER $500 YET THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. I NOW HAVE TO REPLACE THE FRONT TIRES FOR ANOTHER $500 OR SO AND THE CAR ONLY HAS 32000 MILES. I HAVE READ THE NUMEROUS (HUNDREDS) COMPLAINTS WRITTEN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THIS IS JUST RIDICULOUS. WHY SHOULD NISSAN'S SHODDY ENGINEERING BE MY RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX?
