Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have called the acura customer service number and did not get through with anyone. my 2004 acura tl has a consistent vibration problem when the car is running between 50 and 60 mph. the vibration seems to come from the front of the car. i reported the problem to the acura dealer and they have assured me the problem was with the tires. i also had a second opinion from another dealership whom also assured me the problem are the tires. i find that this is a very common issue with the bridgestone tires, and i feel that these tires are unsafe and acura/bridegstone should recall and replace these tires. the consumers should not have to pay to replace these tires. my car has about 10,000 miles and this is a real problem for consumers who just purchased a brand new vehicle to have to worry about tires, which i feel may have a design or manufacturing defect causing a vibration in the car. this may lead to accidents and i also know that there are many other 2004 acura owners complaining about the same problem. i hope this problem gets resolved as soon as possible. *nm
