I purchased a new gulfstream bt cruiser on 2/26/08 - a 2006 model. When I had extended valve put on my rear dual tires I was told by the service department that the inside tires were "sun checked" damaged and needed to be replaced. All of the out side tires are new - so the dealer took the outside rear dual tires and placed them on the inside where they could not been seen. The dealer is jc's rv in livermore, ca. I feel that what they have done in unethical business practices and fraud, besides the fact that they have placed my life in danger with the possibility of a blowout from damaged tires that I assumed were new like the other 4 tires. I do not want to deal with the dealership since I cannot trust them. I am in the process of working with the manufacturer gulf stream to get the tires replaced with no charge to me. This seems to be a lenghty process and in the mean time I am afraid to drive the motorhome for fear of a blowout. My gulfstream member number is #53-3678. Melissa ellingson.
