Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: We took our car into a firestone dealer to find out why this car was chewing up tires. this is the third set of tires we have put on this vehicle and the vehicle has only 63,000 or so miles on it. the last set of tires was put on by sam's at 55,415 miles and the have already gone bad. they were top of the line tires at 59.99 dollars each. they were warranteed for 50,000 miles. this is the 3rd set of tires on this vehicle at 63,000 miles. i think there is a defect that runs in these cars in the cv axle which is what the firestone dealer told me was shot in my car and i believe that this is chewing up the tires. i have had my car aligned, the tires rotated and balanced regularly on this last set of tires and they have gone bad anyway. this is a danger to the public because the tires are wearing quickly and unevenly in a short amount of time. they are also splitting.( dot number: tire size: 195/0hr14 )
