“My son was driving when the car started smoking and caught fire. It was close as when he got out the front dash started burning. The car was a total loss.

“My major concern is when I went to replace my tires today goodyear ls eagles I was told the tie rods were worn so badly that they could not do it without replacing them to align the car properly. There had been a noise in the front of the car since the day one that I thought was normal tire noise, based on my years of driving (37 without incident) it seems worn tie rods at 31,000 miles is something to consider investigating. My driving is local 90% of the time, 7 miles each way to work, 5 days a week. Once a month a trip to boston. …”
