| Description of the problem | I filed a complaint 10/18/2018; however, the complaint was for 2 of the 4 tires. Today's complaint is for the remaining 2 tires which had manufacturer defect per the shop. Please note these are coopertire,cs5 not cs4. T there's not an option for "cs5 "t so like others i'm using the closet which is "cs4 t". My van starting shaking (at this point i have two new tires on 4/18 (cooper cs5 -t) and the other two tires are also cooper cs5 -t, but purchased 1/2016, 80k mile "wear out warranty" i've put 7k on the two "new" tires & the other two have 48k (22k left). The steering wheel shakes, people shake, i stop driving it anywhere that will require me going over 35mph. Shaking isn't even the word for it when over 35 mph. I can't get anywhere on my 35mph for 1. 5 weeks.. Not fun with 4 kids to run to sports school & events. I get the van in finally on thursday, 10/18/2018. I get a call from the shop to tell me there is a "manufacturer defect" on the two older cooper tires. That defect which is typed on my rcpt is "found that the tire had a ply separation causing the vibration." so i looked it up, not knowing exactly the jargon used "tire separation is one of the most dangerous things that can happen to a tire, and can put the driver of the vehicle and everyone else around at risk. A separation can lead to a tire blowout, which in turn can lead to one of these even more serious accidents. Head-on collisions. Rollover accidents. Road run-offs. Side impact incidents. And, more. Often times, the injuries sustained from these accidents are severe, if not deadly." i'm a meticulous record keeper and do regular maintenance on my vehicles. The tires went on 1/2016. Rotated 1/11/2017, 5/17/2017, 3/2018, 4/2018,10/2018. Out come same as last. 2 new tires i pay for, no options, so same brand on again. In 2016 i spent $675 on 4 new tires, they should have 22k left of wear. Instead in total i've paid $106 to have the brand tire on it. Toyota said all 4 tires were a problem 2/2018, denied |
