Problems with 2006 Honda Civic TIRES

Have had issues with my tires and suspension since i bought the vehicle. there is a loud noise from the rear of the vehicle and vehicle vibrates when the speed is increased. i took my vehicle into mankato honda and they insisted that it was the tire company's responsibilities so the tire company replaced the tires and alignment was done. 10,000 miles later i returned with the same complaint, mankato honda would not help me so i went to bursville honda. they did help me, they checked my tires, replaced all four tires and alignment was done. bursville honda did not find anything wrong only uneven worn out tires. about every 10,000 to 15,000 miles i have to have all four tires need to be replaced. burnsville honda helped me 2 more times then the business was sold to walser honda. i returned to mankato honda and they showed me a service bulletin where it stated that it was found that 06-07 honda civic's had uneven or rapid tire wear, that would need to repair rear upper control arm kit and flange bolts. i returned to walser honda to have them do the replacement, now 10,000 miles later i am still having the same problems. i am frustrated and do not know what to do next! *tr

I am on my 8th pair of tires with my vehicle. my tires wear out prematurely and cause heavy vibrations while driving. the tires get noticeable flat spots on them and the tread wears very thin on the inside of the tires. 2 years ago we became extremely close to have one tire blow out on us as it was worn almost through the entire tire. i believe this is a very dangerous problem that honda should deal with. they have come out with a kit for the rear upper control arms that are "suppose" to fix the problem. i took my car in to have the arms replaced, first honda regional service manager said they would not pay for the repair. second, they put the upgraded control arms on the car and they still couldn't get the tires aligned properly, so thirdly i have to wait so they can order some after-market control arms to hopefully fix the problem. you can plainly see when the car is sitting on a flat surface that the tires are slanted too much. it is so obvious that if they couldn't see it at production, they should think about their hiring process. this is dangerous, and people shouldn't have to pay for problems that are caused by the manufacturer. *tr

The problems the consumer is having are with the suspension and tires on the vehicle. since the consumer purchased the 2006 honda civic ex coupe in october 2005, since then she has had problems with the tires which wear rapidly and in an abnormal pattern. the vehicle has been in for service multiple times so consumer could get this problem addressed. she has even stated to dealerships that there is a problem with the suspension and tires when her vehicle was in for normal recalls and checks. every time she stated to the dealership that there is an issue with the vehicle's suspension she was told there is nothing wrong and everything is normal, except the tires are "cupped" or defective. she has since had to replace the vehicle with (4) sets of tires since 2005, it is not possible that the consumer purchased (4) sets of defective tires in a row. consumer found ( tsb 08-001 ) stating "uneven or rapid rear tire wear" from alldata online & honda customer information website. since this problem was never fixed when it was addressed by the consumer to honda, it has since cost the consumer over $1,700 to replace tires. consumer is seeking reimbursement or replacement of (4) goodyear eagle f1 tires in a 225/45/17 size due to poor workmanship of honda dealerships. total of $718.46 if an agreement is not met, consumer is considering a lawsuit against american honda motor co. inc for jeopardizing safety of the consumer. *tr

When hitting a bump in the road the car "slides" out of control. does not drive well in rain tries wear prematurely. loud road noise i have replaced the tires at least 5 times since sept. 2005, rotating them every 5000 mi. the tires seem to wear unevenly. the first tire replacement was after only a few months of the purchase of the car. *tr

I purchase a 2006 honda civic for my wife in oct. 2005 and from the beginning she has complained of a road noise while driving. the noise started out barely audible and has progressively gotten worse with more miles. we brought the car to two honda dealerships before it had 6000 miles on it and they told us that it was just normal tire noise. after more complaining the local dealership said it was our fault, because we did not rotate the tires frequently enough. when i pointed out to them that they balanced and rotated the tires prior to the required period outlined in the vehicle maintenance records the story changed again. the vehicle now has 19000 miles on it and the noise is horrible and the local honda dealership now says the rear two tires have separated belts due to the fact that we must have hit a pothole or road debris. i don't really understand how i could have hit a pothole or road debris with just two tires, because last time i checked the front tires were followed by the rear tires. i have also brought this car to a bridgestone dealer, which is the make of the tires, and he said the tires were cupped due to the car being out of alignment. i then called the customer support line on the tire warranty pamphlet for bridgestone and was informed that this was a vehicle issue. i am concerned that this is becoming a safety issue even though i have been assured that this will not create a problem other than being noisy. i have received no help from honda or bridgestone in this matter other than a bunch of fingerprinting and the offer to sell me new set of tires at a cost of over $600. everyone agrees that the tires have a problem and are the cause of the noise, but nobody wants to admit responsibility for a defective product. *nm
