NHTSA Complaint #10134584 — 2005 CHRYSLER 300

DT: THE ALIGNMENT WAS OFF ON THIS VEHICLE AND CAUSED EXCESSIVE WEAR TO THE TIRES. THIS OCCURRED ON ALL TIRES, HOWEVER, THE DRIVER'S LEFT DT: FRONT TIRE WAS SHOWING THE WEAR INDICATORS. THE VEHICLE HAD ONLY 16,000 MILES ON IT, AND WAS DRIVEN ON HIGHWAY ROADS. CALLED DEALER, WHO SAID IT WAS NOT THEIR PROBLEM, IT WAS THE TIRES AND NOT COVERED BRAND ON THE CAR. NO REPAIRS OR CORRECTIONS HAVE BEEN MADE. CONSUMER TOOK TO A TIRE SHOP DEALER WHO NOTED THIS WAS NOT A TIRE PROBLEM BUT AN ISSUE WITH THE ALIGNMENT. THIS IS STILL A PROBLEM AT THIS TIME. CONSUMER FELT THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE ALIGNMENT AS WELL. NO NOTICEABLE PULLING OR STEERING ON THE VEHICLE WITH THE ALIGNMENT ONLY THE WEAR ON THE TIRES. THIS TIRES WERE THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT ON THE VEHICLE, BUT CONSUMER BELIEVED THIS WAS AGAIN A PROBLEM WITH ALIGNMENT. *AK
