Can anyone tell me why my front passenger tire is wearing faster then the other 3?

Its a 2008 Nissan Sentra SER

Tires are rotated regularly but in the last 2 months the front passenger tire has worn down to almost bald

Thanks for the help

Sorry for the post but google wasnt giving me a straight answer and I dont wanna get screwed by a shady mechanic making a mountain out of a mole hill

Is your alignment out? Usually that is the cause.

But seriously, get an alignment done, you must have hit a massive pothole or curbed ur tire bad enough for it to be out.

It is possible one wheel is out of alignment. While they are there, get them to make sure all the suspension parts are in good shape. It's gotta be one or the other.

Let her drive for a while, see what happens to the tire on the other side!

Like has been said though most likely an Toe Angle issue.
