Sonata 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 45,000 miles
Right-rear (I.e., passenger side rear) tire wearing abnormally. Rotating tires has spread the problem to all tires mounted at any time on the right-rear. Nothing has happened to damage any suspension components and right-rear wheel alignment is okay.
