2 Tire problem

Failure Date: 11/21/2013

I should be getting 4 new tires from my auto dealer in a program that is if I service my car with them I get tires when they meet the required wear. Some time ago I had to replace one tire due to a road hazard and now only 3 tires meet the wear requirement. Now I have asked several tire retailers about this and received several different replies about the wear amount but all said if the 4th tire has less half wear left it is dangerous not to replace the 4th tire. The 4th tire has been measured at 6/32 wear left and I?m told that is less than half but I/m not getting the 4th tire replaced. I have has a discussion with them but they will not replace the 4th tire. What is NHTSA reading about this tire replacement? is this a dangerous action to take and would NHTSA take any action with the appropriate dealer?.

3 Tire problem

Failure Date: 12/25/2011

Bought a 2009 Nissan Maxima on 4/21/2011, it had 25206 miles on it, I currently have 37000 miles on it. I have had to add air to my tires at least once a week, on christmas day I came out to a flat tire, removed wheel and noticed the inside wall had several "spider web" cracks on it, one was bad enough to leak air. I would like to now if anyone else has reported this problem?.
