I acquired a brand-new Nissan Juke Platinum from G**** Nissan Otomotiv around three weeks ago. I hit a curb today and accidently ruined the back left tire. The tire ripped slightly above the heel area, causing air loss and causing scratches on the rim. As a new automobile owner, I called several retailers, including Bostancioglu and G****, in search of a new tire and rim. Unfortunately, none of them carried the exact 215/60R17 92H T005 tire. Following extensive research, it looks that this tire will be phased out, and a replacement pattern, Bridgestone T006, will be launched. The prospect of importing the tire and rim was raised by both Bridgestone and Nissan dealers, but the process would take 3-4 weeks. In the interim, I'm forced to use a "mini spare" tire with a speed limit of 80 km/h. It is important to note that driving at 80 km/h on highways might be dangerous. What bothers me is the availability of rims, which are seen as less important, while the specific tire is unavailable. In any case, Nissan should keep at least a few pairs of tires and rims in Turkey for safety reasons. Other automakers make sure that tires are available in the countries where their vehicles are sold. Based on my 30 years of working with Japanese firms, I understand their strategy of reducing financial expenses through low inventory levels, but leaving a car without a tire and rim for 2-3 weeks is unacceptable and reflects poorly on the Nissan brand. I phoned Nissan customer support, and while the person was unable to provide a solution, she told me that she would notify the appropriate parties. Unfortunately, she stated that the 3-4 week time frame for importing spare components cannot be altered. I am convinced that if a comparable scenario arose in Europe or America, the company's reaction would be substantially different due to the sanctions in those nations. This stock policy is unsuitable for Nissan.
