Alloy wheel cracked at forge line.... So far only delays and more problems with nissan and trying to get response from the regional specialist. This crack was all the way through one spoke, and a very dangerous situation. The problem is that if this would have broke in driving, i would never have known, and the wreck would have been terrible. I would have hit a wall and the impact could have been blamed for crack in the wheel. Nhsta had a report open in late 2010 for the same situation, but the case was closed; in this case a california state trooper was injured. On a 370z, this is so unacceptable, but more so how it is being handled is ridiculous. I had a brabus clk430 prior to this, and merc service was awesome, this is my first nissan, and it is scary to be so dismissed and brushed under the rug.... The car has squeeks and loud engine noise, sticky door handles and trunks, and is feeling like a piece of s**t right now, probably mostly due to how i am being handled.

Post some pictures! Have you tried calling the Nissan customer service hotline? 1-800-Nissan1

Also, what stealership are you working with?
