When I bough my vehicle 2 years ago the gas gauge needle would go to empty, the bell would ring, then go back to full a few times. Dealer said since I bought the car used, and it wasn't a safety issue, they would not cover it in the 30 day warranty. Now the needle is only correnct when it is full. Also, all 4 tires seem to lose air quickly. Brought it to the dealer twice. First time couldn't find a problem, second time they replaced the stems. Now still have the problem. Pretty much sick of wasting my time bringing it somewhere and they can't figure out the problem.

On Saturday, June 21, 2003, I was driving home on a country road at @ 40 miles per hour when my right front tire exploded and separated from the tire rim. I was very lucky that I was not driving at a higher rate of speed, as I was not injured and my Jeep Grand Cherokee remained upright.

Blowouts occurred resulting in tire shreading and falling apart making it impossible to repair tires. This situation occured each time. On the second occasion the blowout caused driver to hit head on steering wheel. All 5 times that the tire or tires blew out they were in pieces. (dot number: M6hh tiresize: P22575R15)
