Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Check tire pressure usually the first week of the month and never had problem of tires losing 60% of air between checkups. I thought that there was a puncture and took it to discount tire in romeoville(where I bought yokohama tires). Checked all the four tires and found no nails or other. They however found two wheels with corrosion(white flaking) and they suggested that I replace the wheels for this weather damage will only accelerate. These are supposed to be alloy wheels and how can there be weather damage. I had all the four wheels ground and buffed. …”
NHTSA complaint #10514716, filed 2013-06, 89,000 miles“On 4/21/14, I purchased 2 crosswind tires. The seller gave me, in writing, tread wear warranty of 50,000 miles. However, I have only driven approx. 19,000 miles and 90% of treads are gone. I have contacted the seller, he told me to contact the manufacturer. The manufacturer refused to honor their warranty. I even contacted my credit card co. To help, but they refused it too. It is dangerous to drive on these tires. I paid $129.00 plus $40.00 for installation. Please help me get my money back.”
