Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I'm very upset about the oem tires on my 2005 acura. i've had it since march of this year and complained from the beginning that the tires should be replaced because of the flat spotting and vibration. i complained to acura in california who had my car in twice so far. they acknowledge the vibration in many of their tls but won't replace the tires. they placed a small dampening rubber by the engine mount but it's still very obvious and very annoying. we as citizens come to you as a last resort many times to voice our concerns over safety issues. i cannot believe that with all the numerous complaints for over two years now about these tires failing, vibrating and very premature wear from new car buyers all over the country, nobody there is doing there job! acura and bridgestone should be made to replace all bridgestone turanza el42 tires immediately.*jb
