Consumer Description

IT ALL STARTED WITH SLIPPING AND MOVEMENT IN THE FRONT LEFT TIRE. IT SO HAPPENED TO BE THE AXLE AND STEERING KNUCKLE. AS I WAS DOING A TIRE ROTATION I NOTICED THAT THE REAR LEFT TIRE HAS A WAVY INSIDE PATTERN WORN OUT AND THE RIGHT REAR TIRE IS WORN OUT FROM THE INSIDE. FROM MY UNDERSTANDING ALL THE WHEELS HAVE TO BE ADJUSTED CORRECTLY BECAUSE IF I WERE TO BUY A NEW SET OF TIRES THEY WILL BE WORN OUT THE SAME WAY I FOUND THE ORIGINAL SET AND ALL TIRES SHOULD BE WORN OUT EVENLY IF THERE IS NOT A PROBLEM WITH THE ALIGNMENT IN ALL FOUR WHEELS. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE HAS HUGE SLITS/CUTS INSIDE THE TIRE. THIS IS UNCOMMON AND ABNORMAL FOR BEING A 2012 VEHICLE AND BEING THE ORIGINAL MANUFACTURER TIRES. *TR
