NHTSA Complaint #10294195 — 2007 CHEVROLET IMPALA

I AM NOW BUYING THE 3RD SET OF REAR TIRES IN LESS THAN A YEAR. THE INSIDE TREAD WEARS DOWN TO THE WIRES EVERY 13-16,000 MILES. THE VIN ON MY CAR FALLS WITHIN THE VIN'S LISTED ON GM TSB 8032, HOWEVER THIS CAR IS NOT A POLICE CAR. GM STATES THAT I MUST BE HITTING A POTHOLE CAUSING ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS. I MUST BE HITTING THE SAME POTHOLE AT THE SAME MILEAGE ALL 3 TIMES AND IT ONLY AFFECTS THE REAR TIRES. THERE IS EXTENSIVE ANECDOTAL REFERENCES TO THIS PROBLEM ON NUMEROUS CAR COMPLAINT WEBSITES, INCLUDING NHTSA. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT IF GM IS ALLOWED TO IGNORE THIS PROBLEM. GM'S ONLY SOLUTION IS TO SELL ME ALIGNMENTS AND TIRES SINCE IT IS "MY FAULT" AND EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM IS IDENTICAL TO THE ISSUE NOTED BY GM IN TSB 8032, IT CAN'T POSSIBLY BE RELATED SINCE THE OTHER IDENTICAL PROBLEM ONLY HAPPENS ON POLICE AND GOVERNMENT CARS TO WHICH GM SELLS A LOT OF CARS. THE EVERYDAY INDIVIDUAL DOES NOT HAVE THE COMPLAINING POWER OF A LARGE BULK PURCHASER. *TR
