Hello, I found your website by browsing on web and may be I'm wrong and I should not fill this form here in your website. I'm writing you about my 2014 Toyota Corolla which I bought from Glendale KIA dealership (400 S. Brand st, Glendale, CA, ) in Feb ,2022 with a Gold Warranty. It is about selling old (may be used) 2020 four tires to me instead of 2022 tires. I paid for NEW tires and I have the invoice(and credit card transaction ,..) They told me first I only told them NEW tires and I didn't mention 2022 and those tires which are from 2020 are good. Their supervisor on Monday offered me a FULL TANK OF GAS for free instead of new tires and when I said no and I want four new tires 2022. He told me to go there again (Wednesday 03/23/2022) to get new tires but they tried to give me 2020 tires again. I asked them I want to talk with store manger , they said manager is off and when I asked that specific Employee name , he didn't respond and tried to go to other room and I started recording his video and he tried to grab my phone by force . I came out and called 911.The police officers came and went inside of the dealership and stayed with me to take my car outside (with out getting new tires and I'm still have the 2020 tires that they gave me on Monday).I emailed the manager and other guys several times before that day but they didn't respond . They never called back my VM. The scheduling links of their website is broken and from March 15 I tried to email and call them but they never respond. One more thing , after police officers came one of their associates text me by his personal cell number ,. Most of the employees are Arabs and I think they are kind of family and friends Their employees have access to my information(Social Security, My family home address, cellphone,..)in 2019 in California , we had some legal laws for tire age for dealerships . I I f I get an accident because of my tires who will be responsible, I paid for new tires for my safety and others.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE:BODY, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Rear passenger door on left side of vehicle fills with water everytime it rains or vehicle is washed. This is causing the body to prematurely rust and it's also sloshing onto electrical components in door which I fear can cause unpredictable and unforseen components to fail. Also beginning to cause an odor on the interior of vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealership from which it was purchased and they simply pulled a rubber stopper from bottom of door and stated that was the only remedy approved and provided through Toyota. Since said remedy was applied door has plugged on three more occasions and was taken back to dealership on only one of the subsequent incidents at which time was told by a service personnel again that to pull the rubber stopper from bottom of door was their only means of repair. Which was also on the day of that this was written and reported. Water was first heard in the door approximately four four months after purchase but was believed to be the fuel in the fuel tank sloshing around. It was approximately 10 months after purchase it was realized that it was water in rear door.

AIR BAGS
I was on a highway exit ramp (exit 5 off Northbound I-395) when my airbags deployed (driver and both sides). My car veered off the asphalt and then quickly I got control and continued out of traffic on a residential side road just off Route 7 westbound. My car then abruptly stoped. I managed to restart it a couple of times and run it just enough to get it off the road . I have attached photos. There does not appear to be any resulting damage to the body of the car. There were no outstanding recalls on the vehicle. I have reported the incident to my insurance (Geico).

AIR BAGS
This is my daughter's car. We purchased it in December, 2019. She was involved in a collision on 02/02/2022. At an intersection, she hit a pick-up truck on the side likely going 30 - 40MPH. The front-end of the car was demolished and the car totaled for insurance purposes. The airbags did not deploy. The title has been signed over to the insurance carrier, Farm Bureau and I believe the vehicle is now at their designated salvage facility. My daughter is awaiting the final insurance settlement amount. There was a police report filed and my daughter was cited. There were no indications of any issues with the airbags prior to the accident.
