Consumer Description

VEHICLE BELONGS TO MY MOTHER BUT I AM WRITING FOR HER. WE WERE DRIVING TO HOSPITAL TO VISIT DAD WHEN I NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE WANTED TO PULL TO THE RIGHT. ASKED MY MOM TO TAKE THE CAR IN TO SEE IF IT NEEDED AN ALIGNMENT. SHE TOOK IT TO OUR LOCAL GOODYEAR DEALER IN MILTON. THE TECH THERE SAID THE TIRES WERE BAD AND SHOWED HER THE TIRES, THE TREAD WAS COMING OFF THE TIRE (TWO ON THE FRONT), THE REARS WERE GETTING THERE. SHE PURCHASED FOUR NEW TIRES AFTER THE TECH TOLD HER THAT HE WOULDN'T EVEN RIDE IN THE CAR. MY MOM KEPT ONE OF THE FRONT TIRES TO SHOW ME - AND YES THE TREAD WAS SEPERATING FROM THE TIRE. I STILL HAVE THE ONE TIRE.*AK (DOT NUMBER: W2M3 BCB TIRESIZE: P215/70R15)
