“My Ford FLEX is equipped with hankook optimo h426 tires. At approximately 9,500 miles the vehicle began to vibrate. I've taken it to the shop 5 times and everything except the tires has been ruled out. After visiting a web site I found literally hundreds of complaints about these tires causing everything from vibration to blowouts. I am currently driving a rental while my car is in the shop that has the same tires. It has the same vibration. The event generally begins at about 60 to 65 MPH however the vibration has been noticed as low as 40 MPH. …”
