Explorer

  • miles
I bought a used 2002 Ford Explorer from evergreen Ford in issaquah Washington. The salesmen told me the car had great tires and they would not need to be replaced for a while. When I took the car to get serviced for the first time (about a month after I bought it) I was told the tires were bald and the car was deemed unsafe to drive - they could not believe I was driving around with such bad tires. When I called the dealership they were abusive and extreamly rude over the phone, they would take no responsibility.
