TIRES
FIVE TIRES ARE ORIGINAL EQUIPTMENT AT TIME OF PURCHASE. THE TIRE THAT FAILED WAS ONLY IN USE SINCE APROXIMATELY JANUARY 27, 2001. THE MILEAGE ON THE SPARE IS UNDER 6000 OF DAILY CITY DRIVING AND ABOUT FIVE TRIPS OF OVER 240 MILES. THE FAILED TIRE LOST ITS ENTIRE TREAD LIKE A BANANA PEELING ON A CALIFORNIA INTERSTATE 5 NORTHBOUND AND WAS NOT RECOVERED. THE TREAD CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL WELL AND BUMPER AND RIGHT DOOR PANEL. FOR REASONS THAT ONLY OUR GOD ALMIGHTY KNOWS, THE TIRE DID NOT BLOW OUT AND THE STEEL THREAD HELD IN PLACE. NEITHER THE HONDA DEALERSHIP OR BRIDGESTONE DEALER AT SEARS STORE HAD ANY WARNINGS ON THIS BRIDGESTONE TIRE MODEL EXPERIENCING TREAD SEPARATION. I HAVE DONE SOME LIMITED INTERNET CHECKING REGARDING FIRESTONE/BRIDGESTONE TIRES BUT HAVE NOT FOUND THIS MODEL ON ANY LIST AS YET. I SHARE THIS INFORMATION SO THAT IF ANY OTHER INCIDENTS WITH THIS MODEL ARISE OR HAVE ALREADY BEEN SHARED, THIS PRODUCT SHOULD BE SCRUTINEZED FOR SAFETY HAZARD CONCERN. THE TIRE WAS PROPERLY INFLATED. THE SEARS REPRESENTATIVE WILL REPORT THE INCIDENT TO BRIDGESTONE FOR RESOLUTION OF TIRE FAILURE. IF I CAN BE OF FURTHER ASSISTANCE, PLEASE CONTACT ME. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.*AK (DOT NUMBER: ELYTCAF017 TIRESIZE: 205/70R15)

STEERING: STEERING WHEEL/HANDLE BAR
IN OWNER'S MANUAL IT STATES TO ADJUST THE STEERING WHEEL SO THAT THE WHEEL POINTS TOWARD THE CHEST AND NOT TOWARD THE FACE DUE TO PROTECTION FROM THE AIRBAG, HOWEVER CONSUMER IS 5 FEET 6 INCHES TALL AND WOULD HAVE TO BE 3-4 INCHES TALLER IN ORDER TO HAVE THE STEERING WHEEL POINT TOWARD HIS CHEST, A REP FROM AMERICAN HONDA SUGGESTED TO HAVE THE DEALER TO MODIFY THE SEAT, BUT THIS WOULD VOID THE WARRANTY. *SLC

POWER TRAIN:CLUTCH ASSEMBLY
THE BACK TIRE LOCKED UP IN A CURVE AND CAUSED A HEAD ON COLLISION. I FEEL THIS PROBLEM CAME FROM A CLUTCH FAILURE. WHAT FURTHER SUPPORTS MY THEORY IS THE FACT THAT THE CLUTCH ASSEMBLY FELL APART AND THE TIMING CHAIN WAS BROKEN. THE BACK TIRE HAD TEMPORARILY HALTED AS I MADE IT THROUGH THE CLUTCHES ON 2 OCCASIONS PRIOR TO MY CRASH.

SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:POWER ADJUST
WE HAVE HAD A RECURRENT PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE SEAT WHERE IF YOU LEAN BACK ON THE SEAT, IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY RELEASE AND BECOME RECUMBANT. IT HAS HAPPENED WITH A MOVEMENT AS SIMPLE AS REACHING BACK TO HAND MY CHILD A DRINK. I AM CONCERNED THAT IF I AM EVER IN AN ACCIDENT THAT THIS SEAT WILL FAIL AND SEVERLY INJURE THE DRIVER AS WELL AS THE PERSON THAT IS SITTING BEHIND HIM/HER. IT HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES AS EARLY AS A FEW THOUSAND MILES ON THE CARE. HAS THIS BEEN REPORTED BY OTHER DRIVERS??*AK
