NHTSA Complaint #10278691 — 2008 MAZDA MAZDA5

PREMATURE TIRE WEAR IS A HUGE PROBLEM. HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT 2 FACTORY TOYO TIRES AT 8,777 MILES (SEP 2008) DUE TO EVEN WEAR THAT PLACED THE TIRES IN THE "RED". REPLACED THE SAME TWO FRONT TIRES (WHICH WERE FALKEN) AT 24,437 MILES (JULY 2009) BECAUSE OF EVEN TIRE WEAR THAT PLACED THE TIRES IN THE "RED". I AM NOW ON MY THIRD SET OF TIRES AT ONLY 24,500 MILES. BOTH TIMES THAT TIRE REPLACEMENT OCCURRED, VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOCAL MAZDA DEALERSHIP FOR ALIGNMENT CHECK AND TO VERIFY WHAT THE CAUSE OF THE ABNORMAL, PREMATURE WEAR IS. BOTH TIMES THE ALIGNMENT WAS NOT OFF AND THERE WAS NO DETERMINING CAUSE FOR THE PREMATURE WEAR OF THE FRONT TWO TIRES.*TR
