“I have a 2006 chevy Colorado. Still practically brand new with only 26,000 miles on it. I began experiencing bad vibration while driving and took it back to the dealership nerly two weeks ago. They said the tire tread is worn and the tires could blow at any minute. The general ameri gs60 tires are supposed to have a 80,000 mile warranty yet no one is standing behind this warranty. Neither the dealership or general themselves. How do I get this issue resolved? My tires have been rotated according to schedule... There is no reason these two front tires should be the way they are!”
