Consumer Description

BELT RUNOUT WITH ONE TIRE. THIS MAY BE RELATED TO RECALL - 00V113001. MAZDA CLAIMS TIRES MEET 94 LOAD RATING. HOWEVER, THE EARLY FAILURE OF A TIRE LEADS ME TO THINK THAT THE TIRES ARE TOO SMALL AND DO NOT MEET THE 94 LOAD RATING. ALSO, THE LABELS ISSUED BY MAZDA SAY TO USE A REPLACEMENT TIRE THAT IS A 205/65 15 94S AND INFLATE IT TO 35 PSI. THIS IS WRONG. ONLY 3 TIRES ARE AVAILABLE IN THAT SIZE WITH A LOAD RATING OF 94. THEY ALL REQUIRE YOU TO INFLATE THE TIRES TO 44 PSI OR GREATER. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. MAZDA IS SUGGESTING OWNERS UNDER-INFLATE THE TIRES BY 9 TO 16 PSI. THE STANDARD TIRE RATING FOR A 205/65 15 IS A 1992. *AK (TIRESIZE: 205/65 15)
