Altima

  • miles
On Sunday December 12th just north of Birmingham on I-65 there was a foreign object in the lane (appeared to be a fairly large piece on concrete). It was between 8-9p thus dark. Due to the amount of traffic driver could not swerve to avoid the object. The object bent the front driver wheel which resulted in needing to replace the driver front wheel and tire (OEM Nissan Wheel and cover, third party recycled tire). The object in the road could have caused far worse damage and bodily injury. We do not have a receipt for the $60 used tire.

My 2017 Nissan Altima is not even a year old and has less then 10,000 miles on it. Driving on the freeway I heard a pop and immediately got off the freeway. My tire, which has great tread, has blown and one of the lugs shot back into the wheel. I believe this is due to a defect with the particular lug. It was not properly secured and became loose causing extensive damage. This should be covered by Nissan, but they are refusing to take responsibility for the defect in their product.
