Troubleshooting
Vibrations or Uneven Ride
This could indicate the tires need re-balancing. Visit a tire professional to have them balanced.
Premature or Uneven Tread Wear
Check wheel alignment and tire pressure. Uneven wear can also be caused by lack of tire rotation. Consult a professional for alignment checks and establish a rotation schedule.
Reduced Grip in Wet Conditions
Ensure tires are inflated to the correct pressure and check tread depth. If tread is significantly worn, replacement may be necessary. Driving speed should be adjusted for wet conditions.
