problem #1

Apr 202005

Avalon 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 31,000 miles
While driving approximately 30 mph left rear tire blew out. Part of tire became shredded where rim was split. Took vehicle to dealership for repair. Dealership was not able to repair vehicle due to lack of personnel. Had tire replaced at cosco, but problem recurred. Consumer returned the tire to costco where they discovered the alloy rim had a small hole that caused the tire to lose air pressure. The tire has been a problem maintaining proper air pressure ever since. Dealership would not honor warranty and charged consumer $375.89 to replace alloy rim.
