Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 2005 toyota sienna le awd has just 7,000 miles on it. recently took it to the dealership for a regular service and requested that they look at the tires as i was experiencing vibration when driving. dealership said that all four tires needed to be replaced as soon as possible as there was cupping and uneven wear. they suggested that i caused this problem by driving on the tires under-inflated or by somehow not maintaining them. however, i am meticulous about maintaining my vehicle and i have not noticed at any time that the pressure was too low, and never at any time did the low tire pressure warning go off. still haggling with dealership to determine whether they will pay to replace them, though i'm not sure replacing them will do much good in another 7,000 miles. no failures, injuries, or deaths to report,... yet. with these poorly made, defective tires, it's only a matter of time. *jb
