Consumer Description

RECEIVED A LETTER FROM BUICK THAT MY 2003 RENDEZVOUS HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH PREMATURE WEAR OF THE WHEEL BEARINGS. I TOOK MY CAR IN TO BE CHECKED BY THE PLACE I PURCHASED IT (QUALITY AUTO OF WARSAW IN) A WEEK BEFORE RECEIVING THE LETTER BECAUSE I HEARD A LOUD HUMM. WAS TOLD TO BRING IT IN ON 9-8-06 FOR WHEEL BEARING REPLACEMENTS BY SERVICE MANGER MATT DILLEY, BUT ON 9-5-06 MY FRONT PASSENGER TIRE SHEARED THE STUDS OFF AND THE TIRE FLEW OVER THE CAR AT 50 MPH, AND CRASHED INTO A FARMERS FIELD. NOW BUICK STATES IT IS NOT THEIR FAULT AND WILL NOT PAY ME OR MY INSURANCE FOR REPAIRS. *JB
