2007 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE WHEELS INSTALLED WITHOUT TPMS SENSORS CAUSING TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM INOPERABLE AND REQUEST AN INVESTIGATION. *SMD THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE RETAILER KNOWINGLY AND WILLINGLY MADE THE TPMS INOPERATIVE, BY INSTALLING WHEELS WITHOUT TPMS EVEN AFTER THE COMPANY HAD BEEN ADVISED THAT SUCH ACTION WOULD VIOLATE THE MAKE INOPERATIVE PROHIBITION OF 49 USC 30122.

IN AUGUST, 2010, WE PURCHASED 4 GOODYEAR ASSURANCE FUEL MAX TIRES. ON DECEMBER 7, 2012 , MY WIFE AND I EXPERIENCED A BLOW OUT TO OUR REAR TIRE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE-95 IN FLORIDA AT A HIGH SPEED ((70MPH) CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL OF OUR 2007 HONDA CRV. WE SWERVING ACROSS SIX LANES OF TRAFFIC, ALMOST FLIPPED, AND NARROWLY AVOIDED CRASHING INTO CONCRETE A WALL BEFORE I FINALLY OBTAINED CONTROL OF THE CAR AND WAS ABLE TO PULLEY OFF ONTO THE EMERGENCY LANE. OUR VEHICLE WAS SERVICED BY GOODYEAR IN OCTOBER, AND THE TIRES WERE INSPECTED AND ROTATED AT THAT TIME. AT THE TIME OF THE BLOWOUT, THE TIRES ONLY HAD 27,000 MILES ON THEM. THEY ARE WARRANTIED FOR 65,000 MILES. WE CONTACTED THE GOODYEAR STORE THE NEXT DAY, AND THE MANAGER INSPECTED THE TIRE AND COULD NOT DETERMINE WHY THE TIRE BLEW OUT. HE ASKED IF WE HIT SOMETHING. WE DIDN'T HIT A THING. WE JUST HEARD A POP. THE ASSISTANT MANAGER OF THE STORE STATED, "THAT'S WHAT THEY ALL SAY," REGARDING OUR STATEMENT THAT WE HIT NOTHING. THE TIRE WAS NOT TORN, BUT WAS SPLIT FROM RIM TO RIM, COMPLETELY SEVERING THE BELTS. MY WIFE AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED IN THIS ACCIDENT AND OTHER DRIVERS COULD HAVE SERIOUSLY INJURED AS WELL. WE DO NOT WANT ANYONE TO EXPERIENCE ANYTHING LIKE THIS EVER AGAIN. GOODYEAR CLAIMS THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH THESE TIRES, BUT WE HAVE SEEN SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT BLOWOUTS ON GOODYEAR ASSURANCE TIRES. GOODYEAR OFFERED US A SMALL PRICE ADJUSTMENT TO REPLACE OUR TIRES, BUT WE ARE AFRAID TO PURCHASE GOODYEAR TIRES. GOODYEAR MUST RECALL THESE DEFECTIVE TIRES BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES THEIR LIFE. *TR

1ST FAILURE WAS TIRES IN REAR OF THE VEHICLE WERE WORN ON THE INSIDE CAUSING THE TIRE TO DEFLATE. RETURNED TO THE DEALER ASKING THEM WHAT HAPPENED. THEY BLAMED THE TIRE MANUFACTURER. PUT NEW TIRES ON HAD ALL THE NECESSARY DEALER SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE. ROTATION ECT. THE NEW TIRES INSTALLED AT 42,000 BEGAN TO SHIMMY BADLY IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE AT 63,000 MILES. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A HONDA DEALER IN FL AND THE TIRES HAD TO BE REPLACED IN THE REAR BECAUSE OF THE SAME WEAR AS THE 1ST SET. THE REAR SUSPENSION CAN NOT BE ADJUSTED TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. THE SOLUTION WAS AFTER MARKET (NOT HONDA MFG PARTS) WITH AN ADJUSTABLE ARM. THE CAMBER CAN NOW BE ADJUSTED TO MAKE THE VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE, THE TIRES WOULD HAVE WORN OUT IN AN AREA NOT EASY TO SEE AN CAUSE A BLOWOUT AT HIGH SPEED WOULD BE A REAL PROBLEM. HONDA CORP WILL NOT ADMIT FAULT. I SEE MANY PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AS I EXPERIENCED. THE EXTENDED VEHICLE INS. I PURCHASED WILL NOT PAY FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEY SAY HONDA HAS MODIFIED THIS PART AND THEY WILL NOT PAY. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL IN MY OPINION BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY ISSUE. I WAS LUCKY TO HAVE MY TIRE FAILURE OCCUR AT A SLOW SPEED. AT 70 MPG IT WOULD HAVE BEEN BAD AND EVERYONE WOULD HAVE BLAMED THE TIRES. BUT THE REAL PROBLEM IS THE VEHICLE'S UNABLE TO ADJUST THE ALIGNMENT TO STOP ABNORMAL TIRE WEAR. HONDA AND ALL THE DEALERS ARE IN DENIAL OF THE PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA CR-V EQUIPPED WITH HANKOOK RADIAL 225/65/R17 TIRES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WHEN SHE NOTICED THAT THE TIRES WERE WEARING UNEVENLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TIRES WERE DEFECTIVE. THE TIRES WERE NOT REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000 AND THE MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE AT THE PURCHASE OF THE TIRES WAS 64,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

ENGINE AND VSA WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON FOR OUR 2007 HONDA CR-V. HONDA DEALER SAID IT WAS OUR TIMING CHAIN AND THAT THIS WAS A TYPICAL PROBLEM WITH CARS OVER 100,000 MILES. HONDA SUPPOSEDLY HAD SOLVED THIS PROBLEM WITH THEIR BELTS BY GOING TO THE CHAIN. OUR CAR HAD 98,000 MILES ON IT. THE COST TO FIX THIS WAS $1,600.00! DRIVING THE CR-V RIGHT AFTER THIS PROBLEM WAS FIXED THE TPMS ALARM CAME ON. NOW WE HAVE TO PAY EVEN MORE TO HAVE THIS FIXED AND DUE TO HIGH REPAIR COSTS CANNOT GET FIXED RIGHT AWAY, SO LEFT DRIVING WITHOUT THIS SAFETY SYSTEM. TALKED TO DEALER WAS NO HELP AND HONDA OF AMERICA WAS NO HELP. THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE WE DID NOT CHANGE THE OIL AS WE SHOULD. THE HONDA CR-V MAINTENANCE BOOK SAID TO CHANGE OIL WHEN THE OIL CHANGE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON, THIS IS WHAT WE DID EACH AND EVERY TIME, BUT HONDA SAID WE SHOULD CHANGE BEFORE THAT! WHY DO THEY STATE TO CHANGE WHEN WARNING LIGHT COMES ON IF THIS IS NOT TRUE? WE BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE NEW BECAUSE WE THOUGHT IT WAS RELIABLE AND LOW MAINTENANCE! *KB

WARNING FOR TIRE SIGNAL CAME ON DASH INDICATING A PROBLEM WITH TIRE PRESSURE (AGAIN). I WENT TO A LOCAL TIRE DEALER FOR AIR AND PRESSURE CHECK ONLY TO BE ADVISED THAT ALL 4 OF MY YOKOHAMA TIRES HAT ONE INCH PLUS OF DRY ROT. THESE TIRES ARE ABOUT ONE YEAR OLD, HAVE APPROX. 35,000 MILES ON THEM AND MY VEHICLE HAS AN OUTSTANDING SERVICE RECORD. COPIES OF RECEIPTS SHOW THAT EVERY 40,000 MILES I PURCHASED NEW TIRES. ALL WORK AND ALL PART PURCHASES HAVE BEEN DONE 100% AT HONDA DEALER-JACK MATIA IN ELYRIA, OHIO. THE ONLY SERVICE PERFORMED OUT OF THE DEALER IS TWICE A YEAR DETAIL SERVICE DONE AT A REPUTABLE DETAIL SHOP IN WESTLAKE, OHIO. UPON MY CONTACTING THE DEALER AND VISITING THEM, THEY COULD NOT EXPLAIN HOW THIS COULD BE MISSED AND NEVER WITNESSED "DRY ROT". THE RETURN/CREDIT PROCESS WITH THE DEALER AND TIRE RACK (HONDA'S DISTRIBUTOR) WAS AN INSULT ON TOP OF HAVING TO PURCHASE BRAND NEW TIRES AND MY CHOICE, A DIFFERENT BRAND. I EXPRESSED MY DISAPPOINTMENT AND ANGER TO THE GENERAL MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS INSULTED. RESEARCH ON MY END INDICATES THAT THERE IS IN FACT DOCUMENTATION ABOUT THE TIRES AND DRY ROT AND THE I BELIEVE THE DEALER IS JUST AS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE TIRES SINCE THEY SOLD THEM AND INSTALLED THEM FOR ME AND SHOULD HAVE SEEN WHAT IS ONE INCH AND HALF ON ALL OF THE TIRES. PICTURES ARE AVAILABLE. NO HARM CAME TO ME OR ANYONE ELSE. HOWEVER, I FEEL I AM DUE COMPENSATION/REFUND FOR THIS PURCHASE AND THIS MATTER SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED TO INSURE THAT NO HARM COMES TO ANYONE ELSE THAT MIGHT HAVE YOKOHAMA TIRES. *TR

2007 HONDA CR-V. START MAKING NOISE AROUND 14,000 MILES. REAR TIRES WERE CUPPED ON OUTSIDE. WENT TO THE DEALER AND WAS STATED THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. CAME WITH CONTINENTAL TIRES, AND SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE STATED THAT THOSE TIRES ARE CHEAP AND HE CAN SELL ME SOME BETTER TIRES. THIS A PROBLEM RELATED TO A LOT OF CR-V AND CIVIC MODELS. *TR
