Wow, wierd... It sucks because you're likely out of warranty. Call Nissan corporate if a dealer won't do anything for you, and please don't drive on it

Yea, but even if I'm out of warranty, if it's a defect I'll get what I need from them somehow. Been taking her to the same dealer for over 3 years. They know me pretty well by now. Lol

Thanks for the advice. I'll be calling corporate if it comes down to that.

I doubt your dealer will shell out 600-700 for a wheel just to keep you happy

This may be true, but why wouldn't you try if it turns out to be some sort of manufacturer problem before readily shelling out $700 of your own. Either way, I like them to note these sort of issues and try to hold them accountable when warranted.
