TIRES
Potential Consequences:
We purchased a set of these tires at the end of June and have only about 15,000mi on them now. The embossed tire wear indicators show more than the 80% tread life left. About two weeks or so ago, I noticed a blister on the tire. Looking at it, there were a few tread blocks separating from the carcass. Yes, separation like what caused issues with Firestone and Ford Explorers a while ago! Pictures attached. I tried reaching out directly to Nokian and received no reply. I then tried to contact the seller (Budget Center) and Amazon. Initially, Amazon was helpful and the seller told me to go check at a local store. Now, Amazon says there is nothing that they will do and I have to go through Nokian on my own. Note that I was not asking for a refund, only help contacting Nokian. We have purchased several sets of tires from Amazon and will never again if this is how they handle warrantable defects. Shameful! The consumer was able to get in contact with the manufacture and the new tire is now installed.

My Tacoma has the super white color paint. It has been peeling for several months from the 2 passenger doors and both front fenders. Toyota acknowledges paint issues with the super white on several models but not the Tacoma. I’ve seen a lot of the same exact issue on the internet. I went to my local Toyota dealer and they said to go to their collision center for them to make a report and send to Toyota. Toyota then told me they are not covering that yet. The paint is getting much worse. I would like to file a complaint in hopes other Toyota owners are doing the same and they will finally acknowledge and correct the issue
