Description of the problem	I purchased a new 2006 toyota matrix xr awd on feb. 2006. I'm going through a 'what seems to be' a common problem with all matrix's "an ab-normal tire wear problem". The wear/chopping started at around 10k... It currently has 17k... I've rotated the tires 3 times already!!! The dealer is telling me it's a rear differential problem... They're replacing it under warranty... Not sure if this will fix the problem??? The tires are all choppy and worn now (at only 17 miles) ... They must be replaced under warranty!!
