I had uneven wear on my tires and had an alignment accomplished by a certified mechanic at firestone. After several attempt to align the camber on the right back rear tire they were forced to leave it at -1.7...which is .02 out of tolerance. The camber adjustment are is in proper working order but the mechanic says this is a constant problem with 2006-2009 hondas due to the arms design. This is a serious problem…

I bought a set of continental procontact tires 205/55/16 for a honda civic. On 12-12-13 and drove to harrisonburg va about 200 miles on 12-17-13. That night the tire pressure indicator lit up since it was late we waited until morning to check the tire at which time it was flat. Embedded in the tire was a wire going from near the wheel along the sidewall toward the tread. It was about 5 inches in length and about…

Back on 3/30/13, i had my vehicle in for service, and my tps light was on, as it typically came on for tire pressure. I didn't think anything of it previously, as we would always just add air as needed. However, the tire pressure was lower than usual. So we have been monitoring it more closely. I live in new england and put 4 snow tires on around november and remove them around april. I purchased the 2009 honda…

Road noise becoming louder and louder along with vibrations being transmitted into the cabin. Checking the rear tires, the inner 1 1/2" of tread is much more worn and unevenly so than the balance of the tread. Same problem as i had on a 2006 honda civic. *tr

My vehicle was at my mechanics for an oil change. Part of their service is to check the tire pressure. A tire was a little low. Upon placing the air chuck on the valve stem, the valve stem exploded. Potential damage to the car and the person who would be adding air was luckily avoided. Honda had in july 09 (same month we purchased this car) issued a service bulletin concerning using only a shallow air chuck on…

Broken belt with only 20k miles makes the tire susceptible to blow-out and unsafe to drive. Dealer says bridgestone attributes it to driver striking a hard object. So sad, this is the first broken belt i've had in my 40 years of driving. *tr

I purchased my 2009 honda civic on 09/09. I had my tires rotated every 6 to 8k. On my third rotation (at 24000) there was a humming sound occurring at low speeds.

Affected parts on the online form does not list "tires". Like many other complaints i detected extreme uneven wear on the rear tires. When i took my vehicle to a tire center the guy said that this is a known issue with this car. He said that there is no recall and that i could go to a honda service center and have a wedge installed that would prevent this wear. Since this is not a recall item i would have to pay out…

We have had to replace an incredible number of tires, including michelins, due to very irregular wear and extreme vibration, beginning with our first set of tires in 2009. The rear end has been the worst, where one wouldn't think great tire wear and flat spots etc. Would be normal -- as we are very busy people and live in a rural area, we have just put on new tires, got repeated alignments, and moved on etc.…
