| I have contacted saturn about the tire problems associated with the ls series, which i currently own the car of the first launch year, 2000. i am now on my third set of tires. they tell me that it is the tires, but i am also on the third brand of tire. i know that i am not alone in this problem. while at the garage with this last set of tires, another consumer had to replace their tires at 5000 miles. i have asked saturn to look into a possible design flaw with regards to the way the car's chassis is styled. they refuse to listen to what i have to say. i would also like to send to you copies of letters i have directed to the saturn corporation. thank you, bette grey. *ak (tiresize: r185) | |||
