general problems of the 2007 Suzuki Grand Vitara

Hello,, I have a problem with my tires,I bought a brand new 2007 Suzuki Grand Vitara in 2007,I have only 26,000 miles on it, I bought it to the dealer to get a oil change. They told me I am going to need new tires in the next 3,000 miles. They came with yokohama geolander g92 tires, I called yokohama tires about six times they kept on telling me that the tires that come with this SUV don't have a warranty, they told me to go to a yokohama dealer were I live, so I went over there they told me the same thing. I pulled up on google, other people that bought similar SUV's in 2000 7/2008, had the same issues, and a lot of them had blowouts while they were driving there SUV's. Once I read them all. I made copies of the all to show you,I called yokohama tires again I told them that if I get a blowout, and get into a accident and me or my family get hurt or worse that I am going to sue them. I would like to know how the united states of America lets companies like yokohama sell products to us, and they don't care about our safety at all, I think that yokohama tire company should be banned from selling tires to the USA, I have been a firefighter for the past ten years, there is a very big safety issue that needs to be addressed, all I want is to be refunded the amount that four new tires would cost me,and that yokohama should not be selling tires in the USA, they are very unsafe tires to be on our cars, yokohama doesn't care about the safety all the people in this country, they just care about all the money they make, can you please contact me if you have any questions about this issue, thank you very much.

Just placed new tires on my car as the rear rt. , was wearing badly on the outside. 23000 miles on 2007. Suzuki mckinney, stated they were aware that this happens, and they no longer had equipment to do alignments. Had another shop align, and they could not get the car within recommended specs. Spoke to Suzuki, and manager that was aware of problems, no longer works there, new acting manager has never heard of problem. In internet searches, appears that it is rampant with the 2006-2007 models, which appears to be mechanical.

The contact owns a 2007 Suzuki Grand Vitara. The vehicle has yokohama tires, size 225/70/r16 (na). While driving 35 mph, the contact heard a loud roaring noise coming from the tires. The speed was not a factor. After inspecting the tires, she noticed wires sticking out of the tread. All four tires were replaced at the cost of $517. The manufacturer would not assume responsibility for the failure. The contact still has possession of the failed tires. The failure and current mileages were 35,021.

Needed to replace tires at 14,000 miles. Now after 6,000 more miles, the rear tires are wearing badly again. Found out today that there are several Grand Vitara owners in my area with the same problem.
