Description of the problem | [xxx] frustrated no help i gotten from rusnak maserati of pasadena. I complaint. [xxx]. My complaint is that i leased a new 2015 maserati quattroport.. And on the second month after getting the car august, i got a lump on the front passenger tire pirelli p245/35zr2(96y)and i took it to t to the dealer and told me it was caused by a pot hole and to take it to a tire center. I did to sears and they told me that they could not find the tire unable to get it.. So i went to ken tire in montebello calif and they told that they could not find the tire because they are not making them.. But he got one from amazon and cost me 500 dollars and plus. I again advised the sale agent [xxx] and the service department why do you have those tires on the car you lease me that they are hard to find or they don't making anymore the pirelli zero p245/35zr2. September 21 2016, i was driving on the 210 freeway pas calif. Going west and suddenly got a bad flat tire and almost cause an accident lucky the car next to me deviated and i got out of the ramp , tire it was tore to the rim. I towed the car to rusnak maserati pasadena, told them what happen , again said it was not the tire that i probably hit a pot hole and that caused the tire to blow.. I was mad and i told them i have never had so much trouble with tires until now with the maserati quattrport , they told me there was nothing they could do, i decided to pay it and t cost me $715 dollars to repair and it took 3 days. And this time was the rear driver passenger side. Pirelli zero p285/30zr2. I believe that this car has a bad design with those tire they need to recall those tires on this car. I believe that some is going to get kill in an accident if they do not correct the problem. I did wrote to pirelli and complaint. Vin [xxx] 2015 maserati quattroport [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
