Consumer Description

ON 9/08/09 I WENT TO A LOCAL TIRE DEALER TO REPAIR 2 SLOW LEAKS IN MY TIRES. I WAS ADVISED THE TIRES BADLY NEEDED ALIGNED. ON 9/09/09 I GOT MY ALIGNMENT. THE REPAIRMAN ADVISED ME THE TIRES WERE ALL WORN BADLY, AND I NEEDED NEW ONES BEFORE WINTER.AT THAT TIME MY MILEAGE WAS ABOUT 16,900 MILES. ON 11/02/09 I BOUGHT 4 NEW TIRES FOR A COSDT OF $425.79 OUT OF NECESSITY FOR UPCOMING WINTER DRIVING. I THOUGHT IT WAS VERY ODD THAT I NEEDED NEW TIRES ON THE IMPALA THAT I HAD PURCHASED TWO YEARS AGO, BUT I TRUST MY TIRE MAN, SO I DID NOT QUESTION WHAT HE TOLD ME I NEEDED TO DO. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST TWO YEARS AGAIN, SO NOW I AM CONCERNED ABOUT WHTHER I NEED NEW TIRES AGAIN ALREADY DUE TO THIS GM PROBLEM OF DEFECTIVE SPINDLE RODS, WHICH CONNECT THE SUSPENSION TO THE REAR WHEELS. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN I AM DRIVING MY VEHICLE!!! *TT
