TIRES - SIDEWALL

 The metal tire belts came thru the sidewalls, letting the air out. took back to goodyear dealer and they said that it was underinflated. not so! had 3 tires all fail like this. dealer said they would sell me the replacement tire, but they don't make this tire anymore. wonder why? one tire even lost a section of the tread, ala firestone tires.*ak (dot number: mkka33hr18 tiresize: 195/75/r14)

 The buckles in the front seat of the van are cracked. *ak consumer states that the dealer refused to replace the seat belts. the calipers have deep grooves, probably caused from the guides wearing into them, the knuckles, guides, and calipers had to be replaced due to causing brake pad failure. tires had been rotated, however still had bad tread wear, no specific tire information was given. *slc
