Consumer Description

I OWN A 2008 CHEVY IMPALA AND HAVE HAD EXTENSIVE WORK DONE ON THE CAR TO REPAIR THE ALIGNMENT OF MY REAR TIRES. I FIRST NOTICED THE ISSUE WHEN AFTER ROUGHLY 7000 MILES I TOOK MY CAR IN TO HAVE THE TIRES ROTATED AND I WAS INFORMED THAT MY REAR TIRES HAD THE STEEL BELTS SHOWING. THIS WAS A SHOCK BECAUSE I HAD PURCHASED 80000 MILE TIRES. I THEN TOOK MY CAR TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO FIXED THE PROBLEM TO THE BEST OF HIS ABILITY AND THIS PLUS THE COST OF THE TIRE RAN ME ROUGHLY 1000 DOLLARS. PRIOR TO ME GETTING THE CAR IN TO THE SHOP I HAD NOTICED EXTREMELY POOR HANDLING IN THE SNOW, BASICALLY IT FELT AS IF THE REAR OF THE CAR WAS CONSTANTLY SLIDING OUT. *KB
