TIRES
IN MARCH, 2003, I PURCHASED A 'USED' 1998 HONDA ACCORD, (EX), FROM ROSNER TOYOTA,3507 JEFFERSON DAVIS HWY, FREDERICKSBURG, VA 22408, 540-898-7900. THIS WAS A "LEASE" CAR THAT WAS TURNED IN FOR A TRADE.*AK THE CAR WAS HANDLING POORLY DURING THE WINTER OF 2003-2004. I WENT TO MY REGULAR AUTO REPAIR SHOP WHICH IS EXPRESS AUTO SERVICES, 2101 JEFERSON DAVIS HWY, FREDERICKSBURG, VA 22401, 540-372-4422, SERVICE ATTENDANT-BRIAN. I WAS INFORMED BY BRIAN THAT THE TIRES THAT WERE MOUNTED ON THE CAR WERE ILLEGAL. THE TIRES WERE "WARRIOR' WITH A "T" SPEED RATING. THE MANUFACTURES RATING WAS A "V" SPEED RATING. I WAS ALSO INFORMED BY THE VIRGINIA STATE POLICE THAT THESE TIRES WERE IN FACT ILLEGAL, & IF I WERE IN AN ACCIDENT OR PULLED OVER FOR A MOVING VIOLATION, I WOULD BE CITED FOR "ILLEGAL EQUIPMENT." THE COMPLAINT IS CONCERNING THE TIRES. I HAD TO REPLACE THE (4) TIRES. I PURCHASED (4) MICHELIN TIRES FROM EXPRESS AUTO SERVICE, AT A TOTAL COST OF $545.58. NOTE: EXPRESS AUTO MADE A NOTATION ON THE INVOICE THAT THE TIRES WERE INCORRECT & THEY HAVE DIGITAL PICTURES OF THE OLD TIRES. I HAD COMMUNICATED MY CONCERNS WITH TOYOTA CORPORATE & THEY INFORMED ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO STATE MY COMPLAINT TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHICH IS ROSNER TOYOTA. I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER OF ROSNER, (MIKE), WHO INFORMED ME THAT THEY WOULD PAY 1/2 OF THE THE CHARGES FOR THE TIRES. I TOLD THEM THAT THIS WAS UNACCEPTABLE. I WANTED TOTAL REIMBURSEMENT FOR ALL OF THE TIRES AND HE REFUSED. I TRIED TO GET TOYOTA CORP TO INTERVENE, BUT THEY STATE THAT THEY DO NOT INTERFERE WITH THIER DEALERSHIPS. I ALSO TRIED TO GET IN TOUCH WITH THE GENERAL MANAGER OF THE DEALERSHIP, BUT I AM TOLD THAT HE "IS NOT AVAILABLE". I WAS INFORMED BY THE VIRGINIA STATE POLICE TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH YOU. THEREFORE, PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU CAN ASSIST ME IN THIS MATTER. THE ONLY OTHER RECOURSE I HAVE IS TO GILE A CLAIM IN 'SMALL CLAIMS " COURT IN THE CITY OF FREDERICKSBURG, VA.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I DRIVE A 2008 HONDA ACCORD THAT HAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WHEN THE COMPRESSOR RUNS. WHETHER IT IS WITH THE A/C OR THE HEATER, WHEN THE COMPRESSOR KICKS ON, MY HEADLIGHTS AND TAILLIGHTS FLICKER/DIM. IT HAPPENS EVERYTIME THE COMPRESSOR KICKS ON. I ASKED MY DEALER ABOUT IT AT A REGULAR SERVICE INTERVAL AND WAS TOLD THAT WAS NORMAL FOR ACCORDS. IT IS VERY DISTRACTING WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND YOUR HEADLIGHTS ARE CONSTANTLY DIMMING/FLICKERING. I HAVE RESORTED TO NOT USING MY AIR CONDITIONING OR HEATER AT NIGHT SO I WON'T HAVE THE LIGHTS FLICKERING/DIMMING. *TR
