WE'VE PUT 21,000 MILES ON THESE TIRES IN 3 YEARS AND HAVE TIRE RUMBLES, VIBRATION WHILE DRIVING AND SIDE WALL IS CRACKING AND FLAKING AWAY. BROUGHT TO THE DEALER WHERE WE GOT THE TIRES FROM AND THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S CAUSING IT. SEEMS TO ME THAT SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL FOR THESE TIRES BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT WHILE DRIVING.

NOTICED NOISE IN MY POWER STEERING ON INSPECTION FOUND TO BE LOW ON FLUID FINLEY FOUND LEAK AT BREAK SYSTEM. ON RESEARCH FOUND THIS TO BE A PROBLUM ON MANY CHEVY AUTOS AND TRUCKS FROM 2003 TO 2006 THOSE ARE THE ONES I FOUND

MY CHEVROLET TAHOE 2005 HAS SEVERAL AIRBAG CODES RELATING TO THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEATS. THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ALSO ON

CHEVROLET IS WELL AWARE OF THE HORNS NOT WORKING FROM 97 TO 2006 HORNS NOT WORKING. THE HORN FAILURE HAPPENS WITH NO NOTICE. THIS CAN LEAD TO DEATH BY NOT GIVING WARNING TO OTHERS. IT'S A BAD DESIGN FLAW THEY'VE GM IS WELL AWARE OF. THE CONTACT SWITCH CORRODS AND WILL NOT MAKE CONTACT. GM WANTS $800 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. DO A QUICK SEARCH AND YOU WILL SEE 1000'S OF COMPLAINTS ON THE ISSUE. I'M SURE IT HAS LEAD TO NUMEROUS DEATHS THAT THE CAUSE WAS UNKNOWN. WE ALMOST DEAD TODAY WHEN SOMEONE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF US WITH NO HORN.
