| Both front tires were worn in the middle after only 15,000 miles! when i went to have them rotated, they couldn't rotate them because there wasn't enough tread left. so, i went to replace the yokohama geolandar tires, but soon found out that there was no warranty, no pro-rated replacement...nothing!!! i had maintained proper inflation in both tires, but i noticed other 2008 toyota rav4 cars in parking lots with the same premature tread wear on front tires. how can toyota sell a car with tires that include no warranty?? so i had to pay for two new tires on a car that was less than 2 years old! i will never buy a toyota again! | |||
