2006 LEXUS LS Tires Problems

ALL FOUR TIRES DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS 1.On February 10, 2020 we purchased four Goodyear Assurance Weatherready tires from Riverside Garage (19 East Ave., Riverside, 60546 708-447-7221 (see attached receipt) 2.On August 5, 2022 the rear/driver’s side tire went flat in Springfield, Illinois during a family visit. We were unable to reinflate the tire. Discount Tire inspected it and found a 12 inch or greater slit and a 1-1/2 inch slit on the inside wall of the tire (see attached photos). The slits revealed white mesh inner membrane. It was unsafe to use, so Discount Tire replaced it. 3.On August 7, 2022, while on route back to Riverside, Illinois from Springfield, Illinois on Interstate 55 we observed a “low tire” light another Assurance tires at rear/passenger side tire. 4.On August 8, 2022 Riverside Garage inspected the rear/passenger tire to find a 1-1/2 inch slit on the inside wall of the tire,...

I PURCHASED A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED 2006 LEXUS 430, INCLUDING 2 ADDITIONAL WARRANTIES, FROM LEXUS CHANDLER IN MAY 2009 UPON WHICH I EXPERIENCE AN INABILITY TO START AND UNLOCK THE STEERING WHEEL EIGHT TIMES WITHIN THE FIRST TWO MONTHS AND INTERMITTENTLY MONTHS AFTER. IF I SIT FOR AN HOUR THE SYSTEM WILL UNLOCK ITSELF AND WILL START. DEALER REFUSES TO INVOLVE ITSELF AND CLAIMS IT IS UNABLE TO REPAIR. I TOOK TO ANOTHER DEALER WHICH STATED THEY COULD DISCONNECT THE ANTI-LOCK MECHANISM BUT THEN THE CAR WOULD NOT HAVE ANY SECURITY FUNCTIONS. I HAVE CONTACTED THE STATE ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE WHICH THEY HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER BUT NO RESOLUTION HAS BEEN PROVIDED AT THIS TIME. I HAVE WRITTEN A LETTER TO MY SENATOR, JOHN MCCAIN, ABOUT THE ISSUE AND AM WAITING A RESPONSE. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN SINCE IT LEAVES ME STRANDED. UPDATED 04/09/10. *LJ THE CONSUMER ALSO...

ALL FOUR TIRES WERE WORN OUT AND AIR WAS KEEP OUT CONTINUOUSLY STARTING AROUND 25,000 MILES. COULDN'T FIND THE REASON UNTIL ALMOST 30,000 MILES EVEN TOOK A LOOK SEVERAL TIMES.

THE FACT I'D LIKE TO COMPLAINT IS WE,CONSUMER CAN NOT EASY TO FIND OUT THOSE PROBLEM UNTIL EITHER TIRE FLAT COMPLETELY OR BLOW OUT WHILE DRIVING OR UNTIL LIFT-UP IN SERVICE SHOP OR UNTIL WE HAVE TRAGEDY ACCIDENT. I COMPLAINED TO LEXUS TO INSPECT FOR PUBLIC SAFETY BUT THEY SAYING THAT THEY CAN REIMBURSE FOR THE PRICE OF 2 PAIRS INSTEAD OF PHYSICAL INSPECTION. BUT MY INTENTION IS NOT ON REIMBURSEMENT BUT PREVENT POSSIBLE ACCIDENT BECAUSE I HEAR SIMILAR CASE ON SAME MODEL LS460 OF MY BROTHER,FRIEND. I REPLACED ALL FOUR TIRES WITH ANOTHER BRAND AND KEEPING ALL FOUR OLD TIRES UNTIL THE PROBLEM...
