NHTSA Complaint #10162558 — 2006 HONDA PILOT

NOTE: SYSTEM DID NOT LET ME PUT IN THE CORRECT TIRE SIZE 235/70/16. I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2006 HONDA PILOT EX AND WANTED TO EXPRESS MY DISSATISFACTION WITH THE TIRES THAT CAME WITH THE VEHICLE. THEY ARE GOODYEAR INTEGRITY TIRES. I PURCHASED THE PILOT FOR A FEW REASONS, ONE BEING THAT THE VEHICLE HAS A 5 STAR SAFETY RATING WHICH IS NOT COMMON AMONG SUV VEHICLES AND SECOND BECAUSE OF HONDA'S RELIABILITY AND CRAFTSMANSHIP. THIS IS MY 5TH HONDA THAT I HAVE PURCHASED AND I HAVE NEVER OWNED ANYTHING BUT HONDA'S. I HAVE TO SAY THAT THE GOODYEAR INTEGRITY TIRES THAT CAME WITH THE VEHICLE ARE JUNK. I LOVE THE VEHICLE BUT HATE THE TIRES. I DON'T JUST HATE THE TIRES BUT I FEEL EXTREMELY UNSAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE IN THE RAIN WITH THESE TIRES. THE VEHICLE FEELS LIKE AT ANY MOMENT IT IS GOING TO HYDROPLANE. ALSO, WHENEVER I STOP IN THE RAIN MY ABS BRAKES ARE CONSTANTLY BEING ACTIVATED. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING WITH THESE TIRES. I HAVE LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AT SOME PILOT AND TIRE DISCUSSION BOARDS AND FOUND SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THESE TIRES ON OTHER PILOTS AND ALSO OTHER VEHICLES (SO IT IS NOT THE VEHICLE BUT THE TIRES). *JB
