I noticed it today after changing my oil. I looked at my front tires from a distance and they are pulling together in a V shape. I only have 6,000 miles WHY????? I called the dealership and left a message with the service dept. More details of the outcome to come...

Is it just me or is the 4th gen Altima a p.o.s?

The Altima uses an inherently inferior chassis & suspension layout: it's called front wheel drive

Keep us posted bro. Have them print out the alignment specs before & after they fix it.

So are the Accord and Camry. No complaints from those people.

I guess we would have to check out the accord/camry forums to see what they are talking about.

Do you keep your tires inflated properly?

if it was in the air when you looked at the tires, they will tilt inwards a little when lifted. how are the tires wearing?

It wasn't inthe the air. Flat on the ground. Tires are not showing uneven wear yet, but the alignment might not have been this bad for very long.

Silly question, what tire pressure are you using and how often are you checking it? I doubt that is the problem, but I am curious.

Just because they LOOK like they are toe-in doesn't mean they are out of spec. But have them check anyways. It's under warranty.

Actually what I am seeing is toe-out.
