“After significant vibration under front end at highway speeds appearing at less than 10,000 miles, car underwent alignment and 3 high speed balances. According to dealership, all 4 tires were worn on insides and could only be caused by defect. Dealer stated that road forcing will not allow tires to be within the limit. Tires need to be replaced.
