Filed Feb 18, 2020 · Steering · 70,000 miles · KS

The steering wheel seems to be very stiff and won't move unless I crank the wheel to turn. It has happened when I was pulling out of my driveway. All of my fluids are full and I have no leaks in my car, everything checked out in a multipoint inspection.

Filed Nov 18, 2014 · Tires · 5,300 miles · AL

My daughter was off to school, probably going 50 MPH when the sidewall of her bridgestone turanza el 400 tire blew out. We bought this car new and it had only 5300 miles on her 2013 scion xd. Looking over at other complaints that bridgestone has similar problems on other tires. Have there been any other complaints on these tires? It seems this should not happen at any mileage of tire much less a tire with 5300 miles on it.
