Recently reported Tire problems of the 2006 Volvo XC90

The Tire Tread/belt problem

Shortly after 14,000 miles, we took our 2006 Volvo Xc90 in to have our tires rotated and balanced. The tire dealership would not even touch the tires but advised us to go directly to Volvo because the tires were an extreme safety hazard.   Read details...

The Tire problem

We own a 2006 Volvo Xc90. It came with pirelli tires which lasted less than 17,000 miles. Tires were replaced, partly by Volvo, but lasted only 20,000 miles. So, two complete sets of tires and the car has only 37,000 miles. I have no choice but to replace them.   Read details...
