| Description of the problem | Today was the 7th tire that needed to be replaced since leasing this car since january 2014. These low profile tires are terrible. I feel this is unacceptable. I was offered a tire warranty which i regret i did not purchase. Regardless, this is a safety issue. The car does not come with a spare. I feel someone could end up stranded somewhere. Each time was either a small pothole, rock, minor bump in the road, or it just went flat! |
