Description of the problem | Tires that came factory on the vehicle did not last as long as the tire was rated from the manufactures website. They are nearly bald, due to highway driving, and the manufacture and car company will not honor the tread life warranty. They said that there is not an owner warranty because i did not purchase the tires. This is confusing to me, only because i bought a $24,000 car! Continental was contacted by me to discuss this, and i've taken my vehicle to the dealer. Neither is willing to accept the fact that the tires did not last like they had advertised. Next vehicle i purchase i plan on removing anything with the name continental on it. |
