| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The car had excessive road noise after 8,000 miles. checking the rear tires i found that both ha numerous flat spots. took it to the honda dealer and got the same response that other complaints i have read. i was asked if i pulled the emergency brake while driving. i was told it was a tire issue and to talk to a bridgestone dealer. the tire dealer told me that the tires that come on the car aren't the best quality and i should replace them with a better pair. there was nothing they could do because they said it due to lack of tire rotation. i have never had an issue with tires wearing like this even after not rotating tires on other vehicles. i have replaced the tires with new michelins at my expense. i will have them rotated at each oil change. i would like to think that honda and it's tire suppliers would address this issue. this is my 5th honda since 1990 and will be my last and the last time i buy bridgestones. *tr |
