Tire Tread/belt problems of the 2000 Honda Accord

2000 Honda Accord. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle defective tires. The consumer stated both rear tires were found to have separated belts during a tire rotation. The consumer stated it was his 3rd set of tires, he had to purchase.

2000 Accord, the rubber on the left front tire came off and broke the hood release wire causing the hood to open and smash the windshield. The vehicle was declared totaled by the insurance company.

The alternator went out on the car with approximately 55,000 miles which is way too soon. The check engine light came on a couple of weeks later and had to replace the egr valve (covered under warranty). The right headlamp has been replaced at least 5 times since owning the car. It has been checked for an electrical short and nothing could be found. The factory-installed cd player failed at approximately 37,000 miles. I have always heard good things about the Honda, but I have not been too pleased with all the little nitpicking stuff. The original tires were replaced at the approximately 50000 mile mark. The new tires were dunlaps which failed within 8 months. Hopefully the new ones will make it.

The bridgestone turanza el 42 p205/65r15 tire experienced tread separation while driving.
