Today, the roads are slightly slippery, but while everyone around us stopped at a traffic light without problem, my wife and I were unable to stop, careening through a red light. Thankfully, there were no oncoming cars. The problem is, we discovered, our tires. Our toyota matrix xr 2wd 2005, and our oem continental tires, has 29,078 miles. Yet our measurements indicate that all four oem tires have a tread of 2/16" (outer) and 3/16" (inner). This is premature wear. Our dealerships service center has said that they have found this to be a problem, yet they offer us no help or solution.

Toyota matrix 2005. Notice that auto noisy on the road. Other complain about it as I am used to it. At last oil change service staff say I need new tires and alignment as wearing. I am puzzled and check internet and come on sights that describe the same issues I am experiencing. I am very concerned - a friend was in a fatal auto accident 12 or so years ago that involved a small pick up truck and later find tire problems involved for other owners also. Vehicle rolled over!
