Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Tires provide extremely poor traction in rain or snow. At the recommended PSI, the tires spin when accelerating and skid when stopping on wet pavement at anything other than extremely slow speeds. With any snowcover on pavement, the vehicle is virtually impossible to prevent from sliding or skidding at virtually any speed. The only way I was able to use the vehicle at all during the winter was to reduce the air pressure in the tires dramatically ... And even then I was taking my life in my hands everytime I drove on even lightly snow dusted pavement. …”
