I would say 2 out of every 5 Z's that pull off the lot experience this problem. You probably won't notice till around 9-10K. Mine started at 10K and I got them replaced at 16K. Everything seems to be fine now. A lot of other people have been saying that they have never even experienced it, so it's kinda a hit and miss I guess.

Out of curiousity what was the flaw that you guys are having with the 350z? When you mention 2/5 had this problem that is kind of a big issue for such a nice car.

tires

im new to this page but im also a nissan tech and can answer the tire ?the front tires are chopping due to improper alignnment from the factory thats why some zs were effected more than others.nissans fix for this prob was to and still is to mount new nittos on the front and preform an updated alignment prcedure per nissan and hunters laser alignment machine,which invloves pulling the strut towers and lower frame assy to produce more tolerable caster camber# which was the cause of the chopping
