Consumer Description

WE HAVE A VIBRATION IN THE TIRES AND TWO DEALERS HAVE TOLD US IT IS THE TIRES. RANCHO FORD IS OUR CLOSES DEALER SO WE HAVE GONE THERE. THEY REPLACED TWO TIRES 6 MONTH'S AGO AND THAT HEPLED A LITTLE. SINCE THAT TIME WE HAVE HAD THREE FLATS BECAUSE OF THE VALVE STEMS RIPPING, MY THOUGHT THE VIBRATION HAS CAUSED THIS AND IT COST US A NEW TIRE. WE HAVE PAID TO HAVE TIRES BALANCED EVEN AT THE DEALER BUT IT STILL VIBRATES. THE RANCHO FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONS MANAGER TOLD ME THAT THEY CONSIDER THE VIBRATION A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VAN.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: LT245/75R1 )
