Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have experienced abnormal tire wear on my 2006 LR3. The tires started wearing unevenly immediately after the purchase. The dealer changed some alignment issues at 10,000 miles that said they were from a defect at the factory and I was told the tires would start to wear evenly. At 16,000 the tires were found to be wearing unevenly again and I was told that they needed replaced.”
NHTSA complaint #10188694, filed 2007-04, 16,079 miles“Uneven tire wear on the 2006 Land Rover LR3, Land Rover knows there is a defect but has done nothing to repair. I am on my 3rd set of tires and my lr LR3 only has 40,000 miles. After doing research, there seems to be a lot of consumers with the same problem. Land rover just gives me excuse after excuse and I have to pay for the new tires and an alignment. The wear on the tire is so severe it can be really dangerous on the roads.”
NHTSA complaint #10299046, filed 2010-01, 12,000 miles“I own a 2006 landrover LR3 with 21,000 miles. All four tires were found to wearing only on the inside only by the dealer at 16,000 miles. At 21,000 miles the dealer informed me that all four tires are dangerously worn and that they need to be replaced. They are worn on the inside only.”
NHTSA complaint #10196365, filed 2007-07, 16,000 miles“Uneven tire wear at 9000 miles. Loud noise in cabin. I contacted the dealer to check the alignment as there is a TSB on this and was told the goodyear tires are just not good I have never seen a tire wear only on the inside edge because the tire is bad. Looks related to the air suspension and toe to me. But they wont fix it, they told me to go buy new tires. I just paid 55k for the truck and 6 mos later they want me to buy good tires????”
NHTSA complaint #10183469, filed 2007-02, 8,000 miles“Tires showing uneven wear on inside treads...loud in cabin, completely premature and strange tire wear at 19,000 miles. Very difficult to locate due to the wear being on the inside treads of all 4 tires.”
