NHTSA Complaint #10288562 — 2007 LEXUS LS 460

I TOOK MY 2007 LEXUS LS460 INTO LEXUS OF RENO FOR IT'S 15K MILE SERVICE ON 11.12.08. DURING THAT SERVICE THE DEALER REPORTED THE TIRES IN GOOD CONDITION WITH 8/32 OF TREAD REMAINING. ON 9.30.09 I RETURNED TO LEXUS OF RENO FOR MY 20K MILE SERVICE. I WAS TOLD THAT MY TIRES WERE WORN TO THE CORDS AND THAT THE LEFT REAR TREAD WAS SEPARATING FROM THE TIRE BODY. THEY ADVISED ME THE TIRES ARE VERY DANGEROUS AND I SHOULD NOT DRIVE ON THEM. THEY REPORTED THE TIRES ARE NOW AT 0/32 OF TREAD REMAINING ALTHOUGH JUST LOOKING AT THE TIRES THE TREAD SEEMED TO BE MORE THAN ADEQUATE. I WAS TOLD I DID "SOMETHING" TO THE VEHICLE TO CAUSE ALL FOUR WHEELS TO BECOME MISALIGNED. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL TIRE DEALER AND HAD ALL FOUR TIRES REPLACED AND THE VEHICLE ALIGNED. I DID NOT KEEP THE OLD TIRES AS I CONCLUDED THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE VEHICLE AND NOT THE TIRES. I DO NOT DRIVE THIS CAR HARD. IF I HAD DONE SOMETHING HORRENDOUS ENOUGH TO CAUSE ALL FOUR TIRES TO BECOME MISALIGNED I WOULD REMEMBER IT. I CAN RECALL NOTHING THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED SUCH DAMAGE. THEREFORE, THERE MAY BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. *TR
