| Description of the problem | Purchase 4 new tires march 9, 2013 from our local mr. Tire in marion ohio. They started going bad this summer. Went to manager and was told you never had then rotated as told. We did go after 6 months of purchase and told to come back next day since they were too busy that day. They were not nice and i called tire company giti tire and was told to have the store call them which mr. Tire never did, many life events have happened since then and never went back. The two back tires now have sharp metal coming thru as found by my son when i almost wrecked in the rain yesterday. The two fronts are going bald. The tires are runway enduro 816 - p235/65r18. They have 18, 660 miles on them with a 40,000 mile warranty. I do not have the money to replace 4 new tires. |
