NHTSA Complaint #10060069 — 2003 ACURA CL

I HAVE A 2003 ACURA CL S TYPE AT 400 MILES A TIRE WAS MICHELIN TIRE WAS REPLACED FOR A BUBBLE IN THE TIRE WALL, THE CAR IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD AND WITH 11,000 MILES. I HAVE REPLACE TWO MORE TIRES FOR BUBBLES. NOW A FOURTH TIRE HAS A BUBBLE. I AM TOLD BY ACURA AND MICHELIN THAT THESE ARE CAUSED BY POT HOLES. THERE IS NO RIM DAMAGE AND I WAS TOLD BY COSTCO THAT THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS TYPE ACURA BECAUSE OF SUSPENSION. THIS IS NOT SAFE, SOME BUBBLES ARE ON INSIDE WALLS AND CAN NOT BE SEEN. I DON'T BELIEVE ANY TESTING WAS DONE. THIS TIRE SHOULD BE OUTLAWED. NO ONE WANTS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND I CAN NOT AFFORD TO REPLACE TIRES EVERY MONTH THESE TIRE ARE BRAND NEW AND MICHELIN IS MAKING A TON OF MONEY. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS WHERE PEOPLE HAVE CRASHED. I WOULD LIKE TO AVOID THIS....I WOULD LIKE EITHER MICHELIN OR ACURA TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM OR I WOULD LIKE TO GET OUT OF MY LEASE SINCE I WAS NOT AWARE OF THE UNSAFE CONDITION OF MY VEHICLE. *AK *JB
