    Temporary/Emergency Spare Tire · Tires

In the fall of 2014 my spare tire was relocated to the luggage compartment of my van which rendered the area unusable for folding the rear seats down to use that area for transporting larger items. I checked with my local dealer…

    The run-flat tires start to make noise, and then one day begin to vibrate badly. The steel belts separate on the inside of the tire, and catastrophically fail with potential to cause an accident. We pull over and have the car towed to a dealer who replaces the tires. This happens every 10,000-30,000 miles. We have to buy new tires to replace all 4 tires. *tr

Once the flat was repaired i could not use the winch again to pull back my spare tire to the original position. I went ahead and replaced…

    I bought my 2008 toyota sienna in october 2007. The first defect i noticed is when the rear windows are open, the rear doors do not lock in place when you open them. The mechanic stated said the he thought the reason it was designed this way was as a precaution, in case a child is leaning out of the window when the doors are opened. This made no sense. My experience has been that the door slams really hard and then…
