Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD THREE DIFFERENT TIRES EXCHANGED ON MY VEHICLE SINCE THE PURCHASE DATE OF FEB. 7 2001. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN EVERY 5000 MILES FOR SERVICE AND EVERYTIME I HAVE LEFT THE DEALERSHIP THE CAR PULLS IMMEDIATELY TO THE RIGHT. I HAVE GONE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP EVEYTIME AND VOICED MY COMPLAINT. AT 15000 MILES THE TIRE MANAGER EXPLAINED IT WAS MY TIRES AND HAD ME PURCHASE A SET OF 4. AT 35000 MILES THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE TIRES AGAIN THIS TIME AT NO CHARGE. I AM NOW AT 64000 AND THIRD SET OF TIRES. I WAS ON THE FREEWAY GOING APPROX 55 MPH WHEN THE TRUCK BEGAN TO SHAKE AND THE TREAD FELL OFF THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED TO THE SIDE AND WILL BE VISITING THE DEALERSHIP ON MONDAY. I AM NOT SURE WHAT THE EXACT NUMBER OF THE TIRES IS BUT IT IS THE GRABBER TIRE. *JB
