I AM GETTING MY FOURTH SET OF TIRES ON MY 2008 IMPALA, WITH 70,000 MILES I HAVE BEEN TOLD EVERYTHING FROM NOT ROTATING MY TIRE WHICH I DO EVERY 6,000 MILES TO ALIGNMENT WHICH HAS BEEN DONE THREE TIMES, , I ALSO HAVE NO POWER STEERING RANDOMLY AT LOW SPEEDS, ALSO REAR DOOR LOCKS DON'T WORK ANY MORE, ALSO WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON AND I CAN'T GO FORWARD AND THEN IT ALL OF A SUDDEN WILL MOVE, THAT'S ON DRY PAVEMENT. *TR

IN LESS THAN 30,000 MILES, I'VE HAD TO HAVE WHEEL ALIGNMENTS EACH TIME I WAS FORCE TO REPLACE 2 SETS OF REARS TIRES ON MY 2008 IMPALA DUE TO EXCESSIVE WEAR. BEFORE HAVING TO REPLACE THE FIRST SET OF TIRE, I HAD THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE FOR CAR VIBRATION AT SPEEDS OF 50 TO 65 MPH. I WAS TOLD THE FIRST TIME THAT ALL THE WHEELS HAD TO BE RE-BALANCED WHICH DID NOT MAKE SINCE TO ME. THE SECOND TIME I WAS TOLD THAT NOTHING WAS FOUND. THEN THE FIRST TIRE FAILURE AND FORTUNATELY ONLY AT 35 MPH. THIS FIRST FAILURE WAS AT APPROX. 15,000 MILES. ONE TIRE, BUT BOTH WERE WORN ENONGH THAT THE DEALER SHOULD HAVE FOREWARN ME BEFORE I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP. THE SECOND SET OF THE ORIGINAL TIRES MOVED TO THE REAR, WORE-OUT AT APPROX. 28,000 MILES. I HAVE NEVER IN MY 47 YEARS OF DRIVING HAD TIRES AND MULITPLE ALIGNMENTS AS I'VE HAD ON THIS CAR. *TR

THE SEATBELT IS WHAT SAVED THE DRIVERS LIFE. *TR
