| Description of the problem | Toyota sienna (2004) run flat tires. Replaced in april 2006 under the class action law suit. Worn again prematurely. Last tire rotation the front tires were worn bad, the back ones were fine. Now, one month later, the front tires (which used to be on the back last month) are now worn. When the tires were replaced, i was told that they were re-engineered and there is to be no worry. I have checked the air pressure more than the recommended amount of every other gas fill up and they have held the air. Is it the tires or the car? Toyota says they will not replace again. It was only 15,500 miles now all 4 will need to be replaced. I don't understand the problem if they are holding the pressure and that is what the dealer and toyota tell me is that i must keep the pressure at 35, it is! |
