Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The tires that came with my 2005 nissan altima had to be replaced with barely 26,000 miles on them in only 2 years! the tires that came with the car were continental touring tires that were supposed to last "til 88,000 miles. pieces of tread pitted off the tires, all four! the company claimed it was just road hazard! we've never had tires on 40 cars we've owned do this! it made my ride very loud and felt rough when driving. the car was difficult to handle at speeds 55+! continental would only talk to us after we complained to nissan, but their offer wasn't acceptible. they said we would get a discount of 30 dollars/tire and we would have to pay the rest, about $350 dollars. the clencher was that i had to buy continental! who wants to put defective tires back on their car? not me! i got a deal, else where for better tires. companies should treat customers better, to keep customers. i will not buy another nissan, or other vehicle again if they have the same tires! a person should not have to have a severe accident, or die to get a company to admit their product is defective.
