Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have been complaining to bmw for 20,000 miles about noisy tires. they kept telling me that it needs rotation and did so. there was alot of road noise coming from the tires and bmw did not assume responsibility. then my husband got into an accident (just a fender bender) on sept 8 or 9th of 2007 when the tires were making alot of noise and hit a cement pole. insurance company told us there is a defective problem in the car regarding the "toe adjustment" and to why the tires are worn sooo badly. it is a chasis problem and not a tire problem. the front 2 tires were on the verge of a blowout. i have contacted bmw and have failed to comply and said i have to pay for new tires and alignment. there are thousands of complaints on this issue while i was researching on the internet. bmw needs to find the problem and replace my tires and fix the problem in toe adjustment. *tr
