Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I purchased a GLE 580 in january 2020 with standard 20-inch wheels and tires on the front and rear. This tire/wheel combination is an available option on the gle 350, gle 350 4matic and gle 450 4matic. The operator's manual for all 2020 gle models (and presumably for earlier models) states: 1.rotate front and rear wheels only if the wheels and tires are of the same dimensions. 2.on vehicles that have the same size front and rear wheels, rotate the wheels according to the intervals in the tire manufacturer's warranty book in your vehicle documents. …”
