problem #1

Jun 302007

Sienna 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 17,000 miles
Purchased 2005 Toyota Sienna with Firestone compact spare in November 2005. In June 2006, used spare for about 8 miles and noted severe cracking on spare. Firestone replaced after two - three weeks delay due to out of stock. Replacement spare was mounted July 7, 2006. In June 2007, I was planning road trip, so I checked spare. Once again, noted cracking on spare. This tire was under a year old and has never been used on the road. One failure is bad luck, but two failures lead me to believe that tire and/or mount design on this vehicle causing premature failure. Obviously, I am concerned about safety and long term reliability.
