Description of the problem | Brand new 2009 toyota camry with 22,557 miles on it was forced to replace one tire. The tire began repeatedly losing air three months prior to replacing it. 6/26/10 i purchased 3 more new tires because they didn't meet safety inspection requirements and were losing air. We were putting air in the tire 2-3x weekly. We had to replace all four tires by 30,000 miles and we waited much longer than we should have. It is ridiculous to pay 30k for a car and need new tires before 2 years. I am very disgusted with toyota. It is a safety risk to drivers and their families. The tires a poor quality. |
