These vehicles have a bald problem with the tires going bald way too soon and that is a safety hazard they shouldn't have to be replaced every 10,000 miles I always got new tires at 45,000 to 60,000 but now I cant wait that long. I've seen many of other complaints about this not just me. I did plenty of research before I filed a complaint about this..

I had a bad vibration in the front. So I took it to the dealer since I had a factory extended warranty bumper to bumper., they said the car needed tires. So I changed the tire it still vibrated. Go back now it is the rack & pinion bushings are bad. But I need to replace the K frame because a weld is broken. They say I broke it cause there are scratches on it. {not that vibration did it} so I paid to have a new one put in. 8 months later the motor mounts break and the engine drops 2" from the ground. Thank god my family was not driving down a highway. So I take it back and they say because there is scratches on it again that broke the bushings.once again I ended up paying to have it fixed.

I purchased a Chrysler pacific 2 weeks ago and immediately found issues with it I took it back and asked for it to be fixed. They kept it for a day and nothing was done. I got to work oneday and it would not start. I took it somewhere else to be looked at and was told the front tires rods were bad, the stabilizer was bad and 3 tires bald. I cant get the dealer to take me out of the loan and give me my money back what can I do?
