“The next day I drove the 2006 Toyota Corolla down the street and the steering wheel shook extremely badly. I took the car back to precision Toyota and asked them if it was out of alignment. The mechanics explained the Toyota Corolla vehicles cannot be aligned and to go on my merry way. I then continued driving the Toyota Corolla and made several visits to brake masters and goodyear tire in phoenix az trying to figure out why the steering wheel shook so badly.

“While driving on the ne extension on my way to my sisters house, my steering wheel began to shaky and pull to the left. I grabbed hold of the steering wheel to try to put us back in the lane but it didn't want to go. Eventually I was able to jerk the steering wheel to the right and we then spun out into two 360 degree turns before landing in a ditch on the side of the road. I then noticed that both of my rear tires had problems as well, and these tires were just recently put on by team Toyota on thursday october 30th 2008.”

“This about a tire called riken raptor's. I now have had this happen twice where the top part of the tire comes off the side walls, it happened in august as well.

How would they know 1st of all and I do know it was inflated correctly. …”
