UNDER RATED TIRES ON VAN CONVERSION, VEHICLE NOT SAFE. *AK( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P235/75R15 )

TRANMISSION ONGOING, POPPING IN REAR ONGOING, TIRES BALD IN 5,000 MILES. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED PULLING OUT IN TRAFFIC AND HAVING THE TRANSMISSION NOT WORK PROPERLY( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P215 75R15 )

*SINCE PURCHASE NEW, ONE TIRE WOULD GO NEARLY FLAT WEEKLY. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED WHEN THEY CHECKED THE WINDOW MECHANISM AND THE ABS SENSOR LIGHT--NO PROBLEM FOUND. TOOK IT TO 3 DIFFERENT TIRE STORES (2 GOODYEAR)--NO PROBLEM FOUND. IT WENT BALD AFTER ONLY 18K AND 2 ROTATIONS. NO PROBLEM SINCE PURCHASING 2 NEW TIRES. ALIGNMENT WAS NOT A PROBLEM--DONE @ 10K & 21K. WEATHER DID NOT EFFECT AIR LOSS, EITHER. *DRIVERS "AUTO-DOWN" FEATURE HAS NEVER WORKED CONSISTANTLY. HAS NEARLY CAUSED ACCIDENTS & IS VERY FRUSTRATING. DEALER HAS CHECKED IT TOO MANY TIMES TO COUNT--SAME WITH THE *ABS LIGHT ON THE DASH COMING ON AND NOT GOING OFF. I THINK THEY CHANGED FUSES ONCE--STILL HAPPENS, BUT NOT AS OFTEN. WOULD THAT EFFECT SAFETY? I DON'T KNOW IF THE SYSTEM WILL WORK PROPERLY WHILE THE LIGHT IS FLASHING. *WIPER PROBLEM IS VERY INTERMITTENT--OF COURSE. WHEN ON SLOW INTERMITTENT (1 OR 2) SPEED, WILL SPEED UP ON IT'S OWN TO VERY FAST & THEN MUST BE TURNED OFF & BACK ON AGAIN IN ORDER TO GET THE CORRECT SPEED SET AGAIN. TEMP & TIME RUN DOES NOT EFFECT MALFUNCTION AT ALL--HAPPENS HOT OR COLD & AFTER 3-5 MINUTES OR UP TO AN HOUR. BACK WIPER HAS ALWAYS "CHATTERED" WHEN WIPING--WORSE WHEN COLD. *CAN YOU CHANGE THIS WINDOW? IT'S HARD TO TELL WHAT YOU TYPE AND VERY HARD TO CORRECT ERRORS.( DOT NUMBER: 97S ? TIRE SIZE: P215/70R15 )

THE FRONT END WAS VIBRATING . THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MERCHANTS TIRE FOR ALIGNMENT AND ROTATION. I WAS ADVISED THE TIRE WERE CHOPPED UP AND NEW TIRES WERE THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY WEAK SHOCKS OR STRUTS. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND WAS ADVISED BY THE SERVICE DEPT. PERSONAL THAT THE TIRES NEEDED TO ROTATED EVERY TWO OIL CHANGES AND NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE SHOCKS OR STRUTS. ALSO I WAS ADVISED THAT IF THEY WERE ROTATED THEY MIGHT WEAR SMOOTH AND THE PROBLEM WOULD GO AWAY.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P205/70R15 )

THE FRONT END WAS VIBRATING. I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR ALIGNMENT AND TIRE ROTATION AND WAS( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P205/70R15 )

THE PROBLEM WITH THE WINDOW WAS REPORTED YESTERDAY 11/12/1999. I FORGOT TO ADD THAT IT MAY NOT CAUSE SAFETY PROBLEMS NOW BUT MONTHS DOWN THE LINE AND DEPENDING ON THE TEMPERATURES, THE SEEPAGE OF THE SEALANT CAN CAUSE THE SEAL AROUND THE WINDOW TO BE INEFFECTIVE AND ULTIMATELY CAUSE WATER TO ENTER THROUGH THE CABIN AREA. WHEN THAT HAPPENS IT COULD CAUSE SHORTAGE AND RISK TO MAJOR COMPONENTS. THE PROBLEM WITH THE TIRES ARE THAT THEY SHOWED PRE-MATURE UNEVEN WEARING ON THE OUTER TREADS OF ALL TIRES AT APPROXIMATELY 1,500 MILES. THIS WEARING CAN BE HAZARDOUS DURING WET DRIVING CONDITIONS AS THE GRIP OF THE TIRES TO ADHERED TO THE ROAD CAN BE LIMITED. I REPORTED 3 TIRES/FAILURES BECAUSE I HAD TO REPLACE ONE ORIGINAL BECAUSE OF A FLAT THAT WAS UNREPAIRABLE. *AK( DOT NUMBER: 284 TIRE SIZE: P15580R13 )
