NHTSA complaint #10475332, filed 2012-09, 7,000 miles“I have vibration on steering wheel beyond speed of 60mph. The thread depth on the front tires is 9.5/10 on both the sides. The thread depth on rear tires is 5 on both the sides. At the dealership I was told that there are flat spots on the tire. It was worked upon for wheel balancing. However the vibration exists.

I did some search and reading on the internet for the defined problem, model year and components. …”

NHTSA complaint #10536941, filed 2013-08, 2,000 miles“Tire inflation meter are too expensive for simple flat repairs. Consumer rip off caused but government regulations required tires to have pressure sensor and warning lights. Each tire has an expensive $80 sensor that easily leaks or gets bumped by mechanics. It cost me $200 to stop the leaks and warning lights. On first look, sounds like a nice idea but in practice companies are ripping us off doing simple nail fixes. The mechanics weaking, purposely loosen the value and say it is our car's computer problem. Please do not required cars to have these monitors. Thanks for listening. …”
