Toyota Sienna Wheels Safety Report | Oct 05, 2013
Reported on Oct 05, 2013
| MY SIENNA FALLS UNDER THE CURRENT RECALL FOR UNSAFE TIRES FOR SIENNAS USED FOR TOWING, BUT THE DEALER REFUSES TO PROVIDE THE EXTRA LOAD TIRES BECAUSE MY HITCH WAS INSTALLED AFTERMARKET. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE WITH THE TOWING PACKAGE, HOWEVER I WAS ADVISED BY THE DEALER TO GET THE HITCH INSTALLED ELSEWHERE TO SAVE TIME AND MONEY. REGARDLESS OF THAT FACT, I FAIL TO SEE HOW WHERE THE HITCH WAS INSTALLED MAKES THE TIRES SAFE VS. UNSAFE. TOYOTA IS CLEARLY HIDING BEHIND AN ARBITRARY POLICY. I USE THE VEHICLE FOR TOWING. ONE TIRE IS BEGINNING TO SHOW SIGNS OF EARLY FAILURE. TOYOTA NEEDS TO PROVIDE THE EXTRA LOAD TIRES ASAP. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. TOYOTA NEEDS TO COMPLY WITH THE RECALL. *TR | |
