Example complaints

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

“I am complaining about the michelin primacy mxv4 tires. The tires have a 60,000 mile warranty and I have only gotten 20,200 miles out of them. The tread wear is a 5/6 gauge. I will have to purchase three new tires very soon, before the tires start balding, in order to correct there failure. I started out with four of them, but now I am down to three. One of them had a screw found in it, so I replaced it with a new firestone tire.”

“Costco installed 4 tires on my 2012 Toyota Sienna on 11/10/2021. The tire had 80,000 mile warranty. At the time of Tire installation, the mileage on my vehicle was 253,405. I did my tire rotations every 5000 mile at Suburban Toyota in Farmington Hills. I took the vehicle for tire rotation at 283,618 miles and the dealership refused to rotate the tires because the tread was below 3/32 seconds. I thought that this was a mistake and went again to rotate the tires at 288,789 miles. …”
