| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I own a 2006 bmw 325i with oem bridgestone turanza el42 run flat tires. the tires have been making a loud noise for quite some time with 19k miles on them. i took the car in to the dealer (leith bmw-raleigh, nc) and was informed the tire was not wearing properly and that this has been a common problem with that model tire. the dealer was only willing to pay for 2 new tires. if the tire has a problem i feel it is fair to get 4 of them replaced. i was not able to find a recall on this tire but i felt like it deserved to be investigated based on the amount of people having problems that are posted on various websites. *jb |
