For the past year i have been going to the dealer for my regular car check-ups and each time would complain that my tire pressure light would come on the kept checking the tire and found nothing wrong. they finally told me that the tires were doing that due to the weather to just ignore the warning. all of a sudden i noticed that the side wall of my tires were separating. i took it in and ask them why was this happening, i can see maybe one tire but all four. they said that i must have hit a pot hole but my tires had a lot of miles on them.in dec 2012 they said that i had 8/32 or greater for tread depth then jun 2013 they said that everything was okay and then oct 2013 they are saying that i have 3/32 or less tread depth. i do not doubt that i need new tires but i do believe that i have some defective tires and i can see one of them would be like this but all four..... *tr

A few issues...... the biggest being the fact the vehicle was brand new it has had a shake in the steering wheel as well as the whole vehicle. you can visually see and feel the steering wheel shake while driving. had it into the dealership on many occasions, they balances the tires, checked the wheels, guaranteed me it was the tires, replaced 2 and said all fixed! nope annoyed that this was the 5th visit, asked for 4 new tires and i paid the difference to upgrade from the hankook's to the michelin's. picked vehicle up and the shale was still there, and they scratched 2 of the wheels while changing the tires. advised the dealership i would address this when i needed an oil change as i had enough! took it in on a tuesday am they advised me they were going to change a and try a few things.... friday they call me and say they also had an engineer from head office look at it, and no fix! so i have to go pick up a vehicle that i bought brand new, and it shakes? i would have bought used! i am now going to talk to the owner and say this is not acceptable! apparently its a v6 issue? the 09 and 11 have the same issue? really? i also have had a sticky note on the dash to cover the chrome clip used to open the storage area on the dash. as it shines right in your eyes while driving? again has no one test drove these vehicles? not impressed that i spent 47k and have a lemon! *tr
