Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Dt: the spare tire did not fit on the rim of the front tires. the car has been taken to the dealership and they would not replace the tire. the manufacturer has been contacted also and they were not any help either. the owner has tried to put the spare tire on the front when she had a flat, but that did not work. the spare also doesn't fit the front. this has been a problem since 2004, when the owner noticed it. the owner went and bought brand new tires, but did not buy a 5th tire to make a new spare. it is the rim that is the problem, not the tire itself. *nm
