“I purchased a new Honda Civic 2013 in july 2014. The car came with continental contipro contact tires size 205/55 r16 89h. From the beginning the tires caused a great deal of noise. On some roads the noise is so loud, there is a potential failure to hear emergency vehicles. In addition, with even the mildest road defect there is rumbling and often a loud booming. I took the car in to report defect at 1066 miles and was told by the service adviser that I needed four new tires. My mechanic also advised me these tires are faulty and dangerous. …”
NHTSA complaint #10664508, filed 2014-12, 1,138 miles“I started getting a notice to check tire pressure. I checked it and then next day my car was parked all day, the following day I went to my car to drive to my mom's 50 miles away, the notice to check tire pressure came on again, I stopped and my back passenger tire was almost flat. It was sunday and the only place open was walmart automotive dept. They took tire off to fix it and found that tire's sidewall had blown out making it impossible to repair the tire. It was a continental tire. I had to purchase another brand tire and I am taking the damaged tire to Honda. …”

NHTSA complaint #10682257, filed 2015-02, 15,000 miles“The lugnuts on the driver’s side front wheel must have become loose somehow. I was driving along and noticed a strange thumping sound. Before I could pull over the wheel became detached and was rolling away. I pulled off safely and called a tow truck. The tires were last rotated by Annapolis Honda 6 months prior to the date of the accident (11.4.25). The damage estimate – the front brakes and rotors need to be replaced. Also body damage to the front left quarter-panel and front bumper. Likely at least $4,000 in total costs. …”
