| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have had to replace (4) sets of bridgestone and firestone tires on my '97 avalon due to hydroplaneing, poor wear quality and substandard performance. i have had nothing but firestone & bridgestone tires on this car since i purchased it new. yet, i have spent close to $2000.00 and alot of my time to replace tires that haven't held up to the performance and quality "as advertised"! on 11/16/00, i spent an additional $543.15 replacemy last set of bridgestone tires with michilen 205/60/15 tires. i also have a 1988 toyota 4-runner with 230,000 miles on it. from the day i bought it new, i have had nothing but bridgstone dessert deuler's on it. the last set of b/s dessert duelers i purchased for my 4-runner were so poorly built, that i went through 8 (eight) tires to find four good ones; because they were all out of round and hopping. on 11/15/00, i was forced to replace my 4-runner tires with michelin tires as well. i have been a true bridgestone/firestone tire diehard until these most recent problems. but i got to the point that i felt that the safety of my family and i was at risk due to the poor quality and performance bridgestone/firestone had advertised their tires to be. i am requesting a full investigation by nhtsa and the bridgestone/firestone company. i have all the documentation to support my claim. please feel free to call me at (904) 223-9549 if you have furhter questions or i may assist in any way. thank you in advance for your help. respectfully, john m. graves. *ak (tiresize: p20565hr15)( dot number: tire size: p20565hr15 ) |
