Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 2004 acura tl came equipped with bridgrstone el-42 turanza tires. although we have not had an accident, these tires hydroplane like crazy and have zero snow traction and control. they are so bad that we paid to have all 4 replaced at 20,000 miles. i now find that this is a very common issue with this tire, although our dealer claims otherwise. i feel that these tires are patently unsafe and acura or bridgestone should recall and replace them. *ak
