| Took vehicle to dealer for an oil change and the tires in front were bald; so dealer replaced the tires with new tires. this was when the vehicle was at 8000 miles. noticed that at 15000 miles the new replacement tires had start wearing out, and the dealerr said that they will not fix them this time. consumer wants to know why his tires are wearing out so fast at low mileage. *akthe alignment has been adjusted severla times but the tires continue to wear prematurely (not tire info was given), the front end sticks/locks up when making full turns in 4 wheel drive, the fuel economy is low, the ashtray falls out of the dashboard, the truck slides sideways when stopping on icy roads, the speedometer failed. *nlm | |||

| Tread separated from steel belts, and pounded on body of truck, causing $1400 in body damage, then ripped away, leaving only a bare steel belt, which still held air pressure. reported to firestone dealer, who told me that they had no responsibility for 1995 tires because tires should be thrown out and replaced after 4 years, due to uv damage from the sun; he also told me that i had too much air in the tire. i replaced that and another firestone tire (also vintage 1995) at sears at my own expense ($144 more). *ak( dot number: tire size: p195 75r14 ) | |||
