| I drive a 2011 honda pilot. it was purchased new. on the morning of june 7, 2011, a family member discovered that the vehicle, which was in the driveway of the house, had a flat in the front, driver-side tire. the vehicle was placed on a flat bed and taken to a local mechanic. upon inspection, the mechanic noted that there was a puncture to the sidewall of the tire which should not be repaired. a replacement tire was purchased and the old one was discarded. i speculated that road hazard may have caused the puncture, so did not think much about filing a complaint. the tire had about 6,183 miles on it the time of the incident. on the evening of june 17, 2011, as i was driving along the tappan zee bridge (connecting rockland and westchester counties) in new york, the tire warning indicator went on. upon my arrival at home (about an 8-minute drive from the bridge), i noticed a hissing sound coming from the rear, driver-side tire and immediately concluded that the tire was deflating. the following morning the tire was flat. after installing the spare, i took the tire to a goodyear dealer. upon inspection, the mechanic noted that there was a puncture to the sidewall of the tire which should not be repaired, which was the same issue discovered with the front, driver-side tire. i replaced it with a new tire. the tire had approximately 6,500 miles on it the time of the incident. this time i filed a complaint since it was highly coincidental that two tires would fail within a 10-day period with the same fact pattern. i suspect that the vehicle came installed with at least two tires that had weak sidewalls. | |||
