Tire wear and damage

● Tires should be periodically inspected

● Tires should be periodically inspected for wear, cracking, bulging or objects caught in the tread.

If excessive wear, cracks, bulging or deep cuts are found, the tire(s) should be replaced.

● The original tires have built-in tread wear indicators. When the wear indicators are visible, the tire(s) should be replaced.

● Tires degrade with age and use.

Have tires, including the spare, over 6 years old checked by a qualified technician because some tire damage may not be obvious.

Replace the tires as necessary to prevent tire failure and possible personal injury.

● Improper service of the spare tire may result in serious personal injury.

If it is necessary to repair the spare tire, contact a NISSAN dealer.
