 Purchased the bridgestone turanza el400-02 after 20,000 miles had a flat. took the tire back to where purchased and they said they didnt see any reason for the flat and the tire had cracks inside the tire and also all the tires needed to be replaced because there wasn't any tread left on them. these are rated for 80,000 miles and should last longer than 1/4 of the rated mileage. these tires are dangerous and they should not be allowed to sell them.

 I went in to get my oil changed and my tires rotated and was told my car is unsafe to drive and here is what they put on my invoice (verbatim) needs both lower control arms passenger side front has a really bad ball joint and left outer tie rod end is bad also price to replace both outer tie rod ends and both lower ball joints $1083 plus tax and that includes the alignment!!!!!!!!! vehicle is unsafe to drive with ball joint is this condition!!!!!!!!! (literally with all the exclamation marks.) i took the car somewhere else to get repaired (for half the cost) however i believe this is a part failure as i have less than 50k miles. *tr

 I have a 2007 jeep compass. and for the past year i have had several issues with the vehicle stalling when i am decelerating or stalling when at a complete stop. some times the vehicle jerks so bad that my seat belt locks up. i took it to the dealership where i bought it and they said there was nothing wrong with it but that the tech's are unfamiliar with the new transmission in this vehicle. i also have problems with the driver side seatbelt it clicks when i put it on but then all of a sudden it will come right off. i had a screw stuck in my front tire today and could not get the front tire off when we finally got it off we figured out why it would not come off there is rust. i am very unhappy with the problems and scared that the vehicle will stall when i am on a major highway. *tr
