“On november 6, 2016, I replaced car tires (4 sets, 1 set) at walmart (#01004). Model: dexero 195/60r15 88h ( DOT: y9k5 cvhx 0916). Today (8-22-2018), this set of tires traveled a total of 14,220 miles. A few inches of cracks appear on the inside of the two tires on the front wheel, posing a major hazard. I went to walmart warranty claim is rejected, I had to pay another set of replacement tires. I am now complaining to you, please handle it.”

“I have a 2001 Honda Civic whose front tires were replaced about 3 years ago at sears. About 3 months ago, I blew out my right front tire on a highway and when I took it to the garage, I was told that the valve stem had blown out and I could see that the valve stem was cracked. I went to sears and complained but they claimed that if the valve stem was faulty I should not be able to drive but this happened on a highway and they did not believe me. I got a replacement tire from them to match the front left which was a sears tire. …”

“It started to rain heavily so I turned on the windshield wipers. It was raining so hard I couldn't see so I put the wipers to the fastest setting possible. The moment the wiper on the left reached the far left side of the windshield the wiper came off the windshield and banged the side of the car (the frame) and then flew into the air. The wiper comes off the windshield each time you turn them on full blast. As a result my vision is impaired and I can't see through the rain to drive. I can't see the lanes to stay in the lines or the cars in front of me. …”

“I purchased a 2001 Honda Civic coupe ex, in november 2000. It has been nothing but problems ever since. Ive been to two different Honda service centers almost 20 times now. The car has 23,000 miles on it and has gone through 3 sets of brakes. The car completely died on two occasions, both needing battery to be boosted. Then all of the dashboard lights were flashing crazy. On one of those occasions, it died right in front of Honda, after they assured me that my car was fine. This has been an ongoing problem with Honda. They fail to find any of the serious problems that are continuing. …”

“In requesting a quote for car insurance, a link was provided to the NHTSA website for those wishing to see if their vehicle has/had been recalled. For the heck of it, I decided to try it. To my shock, I discovered there have been 5 recalls associated with the 2001 Honda Civic since 2001(re: seat belts; fuel system/fuel pump; and engine & engine cooling). It is now 2003, and I have never received one notification. The system did not specify if these recalls are related to the ex model, which is what I have. …”
