 Description of the problemSevere tire wear on jeep compass on 05/12/16 i took a rental car (jeep compass, mileage: 10417) in las vegas. On 05/26/16, just as we had passed the mountain routes from durango to ouray, i discovered by chance that both front tires were completely worn out on the inside (see photos). I did not discover it earlier, because the tire tread was o. K. On the outside and the body hided the rest of the tire. Then i drove very slowly. Soon after came the warning light for the tire pressure: the left front tire lost pressure (mileage approximately: 12250). I changed the wheel and was hoping that the right tire held air to the nearest town. We reached the town without further problem. As i brought the car to the tire shop, they told me, that the toe was completely wrong and that wheel alignment would be necessary (see alignment report). Summary: the cause of this symmetric tire wear is mysterious: the car had relatively few miles and there was no event (such as an impact to the wheels), that possibly could have changed the toe. Nevertheless i think, the car was not roadworthy and i'm glad i noticed the problem before it came to an accident. I send this report from germany. As it is not possible to fill in this country and my telephone number, i give you the state and phone number of the rental car company.
