Safety inspection of tires are showing abnormal and rapid tread wear focused on the outside facing section of tread on all four tires. While the section of tread on the inside facing section is near factory new. The vehicle was bought factory new and this is on the original set of tires. Mileage at this time is still below 25,000 as it is driven sparingly. Despite that all four corners exhibit rapid and uneven wear of the tread indicating an alignment issue from the factory. The vehicle has never been in any colision nor curbed even once. Owner research on various Metris forums show this is not an isolated issue. Many point to an error in factory parameters regarding camber as well as a excessive toe in.
