Pontiac G6 Tires Sidewall Safety Report | Jan 01, 2008
Reported on Jan 01, 2008
| WHILE DRIVING HOME I NOTICED MY CAR WAS PULLING TO THE RIGHT,AND I HEAR A THUMPING SOUND , THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WAS FLAT. IT WAS SPLIT AT THE SIDES 3 INCHES FROM THE TOP OF THE TIRE. AFTER TAKING THE TIRE TO THE DEALER IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE DEFECTIVE SINCE THE TIRE ONLY HAD 192332 MILES IN IT. MY CONCERN IS THIS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE OTHER TIRES. THANKFULLY I WAS ONLY DRIVING AT 30MPH, WHAT IF I HAD BEEN GOING FASTER AND THE TIRE BLEWOUT?I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT NOT ONLY WAS THE TIRE SPLIT ON THE OUTSIDE BUT ON THE INSIDE AS WELL.IWANTED THE DEALER TO REPLACE ALL FOUR TIRES BUT THEY WILL ONLY REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE ONE. I ALSO CALLED THE PONTIAC CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE LINE AND ASKED THEM TO REPLACE ALL FOUR TIRES.THEY SAID NO I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING ON THESE TIRES. P216/60R16 UNIROYAL TIGER PAW TOURING (5R)*CN | |
