Consumer Description

AS OF SEPTEMBER 10TH, 2002, I HAVE HAD TWO TIRES WITH SEPERATED BELTS. I HAVE HAD MY EXCURSION IN TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS DUE WHAT APPEARED TO BE STEERING ISSUES. THE VEHICLE WONDERS ON THE ROAD AS IF IT HAS BALD TIRES. I HAD ONE DEALERSHIP TELL ME IT IS CHARACTORISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. I HAD A SECOND TELL ME IT WAS TIRE PRESSURE AND PROCEEDED TO INFLATE MY REAR TIRES TO 65 PSI. I HAD ANOTHER DEALER THIS WEEK TELL ME THE TWO REAR TIRE APPEAR TO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE "BELTS". NOW THIS SAME DEALER JUST ROTATED MY TIRES. I STARTED RESEARCHING FOR DEFECTS AND WAS ASTONISHED AT THE AMOUNT OF REPORTS OUT THERE ON THE INTERNET. WHY IS IT THAT YOUR AGENCY IS NOT PURSUING THESE DEFECTS? PLEASE ADVISE? NLM
