Honda Accord Tires Safety Report | Aug 12, 2012
Reported on Aug 12, 2012
| WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE BLEW UP. IT WAS AN EXPERIENCE NEVER FELT BEFORE. I FELT SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR UNTIL NOW. I TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR INSPECTION AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WERE NO HELP. WHEN I TOLD THEM ABOUT THE TIRE, IT SEEM THAT THEY ALREADY KNEW HOW IT HAPPENED. IMMEDIATELY THE MANAGER CAME TO CHECK UNDER THE TIRE AND WITHIN 30 SECONDS OF INSPECTION SAID THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REPLACE THE TIRE BECAUSE IT WAS CAUSED BY A PUNCTURE. THE MANAGER SAID THERE IS A BREAK CABLE RIGHT ABOVE THE TIRE AND THAT IS WHAT CAUSED THE TIRE TO RUPTURE. THEN OFFERED TO CHECK THE VEHICLE JUST IN CASE BUT KNEW HE KNEW THEY WERE NOT COVERING THE TIRE. HE OFFERED ME TO ONLY PAY FOR THE TIRE BUT WILL NOT CHARGE FOR INSTALLATION. NEED HELP!!! *TR | |
