Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Excessive inner tire wear, causing the vehicle to lose control when it rains. unsafe slippery feeling, and vehicle sliding off the road on the highway. vehicle has been to repair shop 4 times, and could not correct the problem. 3 sets of tires for every 7 -10,000 miles, and dealer rotated them. vehicle lost control on wet pavement. not normal. i have owned several range rovers and never experienced this problem since i bought the 2003. i contacted the manufacturer and they have not come back to me with a meeting or otherwise. front ball joints sway bars,many front end parts have been replaced ,and still not resolved. inner tire wear is to excessive, and abnormal, too fast, and if not noted in the public, i believe this will cause many accidents like the ford explorer.*ak
