Consumer Description

PURCHASED 2008 IMPALA SS FACTORY DEMO CAR WITH 3000 MILES AND AT 15000 MILES A REAR TIRE BLEW OUT AT 65 MILES AN HOUR AND ALMOST WRECKED US. REAR TIRES WERE WORE OUT ON INSIDE. DOWN TO THE CORD WHICH AT 15000 MILES SEEMED IMPOSSIBLE. REPLACED TIRES AND DEALER SAID ALIGNMENT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM BUT WAS NORMAL FOR THE MODEL CAR AND NOW AT 23000 MILES REAR TIRES ARE WORE OUT AGAIN ON INSIDE AND FRONT TIRES ARE THE ORIGINAL AND STILL LOOK NEW. WHY CAN'T THE DEALER REPAIR THE PROBLEM INSTEAD OF SELLING TIRES EVERY 10000 MILES? I THINK THEY JUST WANT THE EXTRA CASH FLOW DURING THIS TIME THE ECONOMY IS SLOW . *TR
