TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH THE FRONT LEFT TIRE STRUCK A PIECE OF WOOD AND RUPTURED THE FUEL TANK.

THERE HAS BEEN UNEVEN TIRE WEAR, PARTICULARLY AT THE REAR OF OUR 2007 HONDA CIVIC. EVER SINCE WE BOUGHT THE CAR. THE FEATHERING OF THE TREAD RESEMBLED A TRACKING PROBLEM, BUT WE ALSO HAD WHEEL BEARING FAILURES. THREE WERE REPLACED OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS. THE DEALER NEVER CHECKED THE TRACK DESPITE MY QUERIES. I NOW FIND THAT THERE IS A HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN THAT WAS ISSUED REGARDING REAR SUSPENSION IN FEBRUARY 2008. THE DEALER STILL HASN'T ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM BEYOND SELLING US NEW TIRES AND ADJUSTING THE TRACK AND CHARGING US FOR THE FULL COST. THEY DID NOT PERFORM THE RECOMMENDED REPLACEMENT OF COMPONENTS. *TR
