Bridgestone Unknown 9999 Complaint

Complaint about TIRES

LINCOLNTON, NC

Consumer Complaint:
CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW IN MARCH OF 2007. I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THAT WHEN DRIVING 60 MPH OR MORE ON THE FREEWAY, THE CAR SEEMED TO SWERVE AND WAS VERY HARD TO KEEP IN THE LANE. I'VE DRIVEN HONDA CIVICS AND OTHER SMALL CARS FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS SO THIS WAS VERY UNEXPECTED. I TOOK THE CAR TO A LOCAL DEALER WAS TOLD THAT THE TIRES WERE FINE AND THAT THEY SAW NO PROBLEM WITH THE CAR. I CONTINUED TO NOTICE THE DIFFICULTY IN STEERING THE VEHICLE UNTIL THE BRIDGESTONE FACTORY TIRES WERE ROTATED AT 6000 MILES. MOVING THE TIRES SEEMED TO DECREASE THE PROBLEM SO I AGAIN MENTIONED THIS TO THE DEALER. THEY AGAIN CHECKED ALL TIRES AND ASSURED ME NO PROBLEM EXISTED. SIX THOUSAND MILES LATER, ANOTHER ROTATION AND ONCE AGAIN THE PROBLEM STARTS OCCURRING AGAIN. THE DEALER CHECKED TIRES AGAIN AND STILL CAN FIND NO PROBLEM. I THINK THERE IS A DEFINITE PROBLEM WITH SOME OF THE BRIDGESTONE TIRES THAT COME WITH THESE CIVICS. *TR
