“Took my car in for an alignment and new tires (tires were smooth on the outside after 24k miles), and was told the service could not be performed as all 4 rims were severly out of round. My option was to replace all four rims, about $2300, or have an after market company come to the dealership and repair on site for $600.”

“The experience with armen was, without a doubt, the worst car experience in my 40+ years of driving. First off, my 2013 XTS platinum has been a problem since I bought it. After driving about a year I had a severe shimmy and vibration in the wheels that scared the hell out of me. Took it in and was told all 4 wheels were damaged and needed to be replaced, ted robinson went to bat for me and got them replaced ($3400) by Cadillac. Flash forward another year, severe shimmy same issue-4 more bad wheels. I was told that potholes were bad this year. …”

“My wife and I purchased a new 2013 Cadillac XTS a year ago and have had issues with the vogue tires and rims that came with the car. The tires are vogue m&s 245/40r20 99vxl and we believe they are a major safety problem. A few months ago the front tires had a major vibration issue so I took the car in for service and had it checked out. The dealer stated that I had a bad tire and that I would need to buy another one which I paid $100.00 for. The rims started to peel and the dealer stated that the rims are not under a warranty. …”
