Driving at 70mph there was a there was a large increase in noise and vibration for a minute followed by a loud bang. Inspection revealed that an explosive tire failure had occurred. Several places on the sidewall were torn and the tread had bulges on it. The defective tire was replaced. 2 months later the same brand and model tire on the other side of the car started to rumble - fortunately at only 45 mph in town. Inspection revealed that there was a bulge on the tread so the tire was replaced. Since 2 primewell tires on the same axle failed within 2 months of each other, I believe this is manufacturers defect - not just a simple coincidence.

The vehicle does not seem safe, the tires have a loud roar, and the car is hard to keep in the road. Someone from another dealership told us it seemed like the wheel bearings. Coles knows there is a problem with the tires but says there is nothing they can do. It has been checked several times. I feel that this car needs to be fixed.lt is starting to shake and shimmy on speeds of 40 and higher.( dot number: )
