“After my 2006 Buick Lucerne cxs sits for awhile, 10-12 hours, I get a really bad vibration out of the car. It shakes the entire car as if it is going to fall apart. After 5-10 minutes of driving it smoothes out a bit but doesn't completely go away. Mostly noticeable when its cold out. The dealer replaced the tires with the same brand and model, but the very next day, I had the same problem with the new tires. I have talked to the 2 dealers, Buick customer support, bridgestone consumer line, a firestone corp. …”
