Consumer Description

WE HAVE HAD TO REPLACE AN INCREDIBLE NUMBER OF TIRES, INCLUDING MICHELINS, DUE TO VERY IRREGULAR WEAR AND EXTREME VIBRATION, BEGINNING WITH OUR FIRST SET OF TIRES IN 2009. THE REAR END HAS BEEN THE WORST, WHERE ONE WOULDN'T THINK GREAT TIRE WEAR AND FLAT SPOTS ETC. WOULD BE NORMAL -- AS WE ARE VERY BUSY PEOPLE AND LIVE IN A RURAL AREA, WE HAVE JUST PUT ON NEW TIRES, GOT REPEATED ALIGNMENTS, AND MOVED ON ETC. FINALLY, OUR LOCAL MECHANIC HAS FINALLY ADVISED US JUST A FEW DAYS AGO OUR PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN DUE TO THE CONTROL ARM INTERACTION WITH TIRES ISSUE FROM THE FACTORY, THAT HAVE REPORTEDLY OCCURRED WITH THIS 2009 HONDA CIVIC MODEL (THAT HE WOULD SOLVE WITH NEW CONTROL ARM ASS'Y AND ALIGNMENT FOR $842.29). *TR
