Mass Frustration & Anger, the Universal language...

 

English may not be his first language. Cut the guy some slack.

Since no on else has said it so far, welcome to posting on NAM (I see you've been a member for a while though).

 

Were they Pirelli run-flats? Hate 'em. I don't even live in the city, drive highway and suburban roads, and I had 3 blowouts on low mileage tires on 2 different MINI's in 2 months. They were minor potholes at about 40-45 mph. Also damaged one of the rims.

I switched to 16" v-spokes with Dunlops on one of the MINI'S. Still have an s-lite with a good tire (as well as the other s-lites). When I no longer have 4 viable Pirelli's I will switch to non run-flats. And I will never buy a Pirelli tire.

I called them to complain, and they sent a technician to look at my tires. I received a letter from their claims reps stating that there were "no manufacturing or design defects". O.K., then they just suck!!!

If you had the Goodyear run-flats at least you would've had a road hazard warranty.

Call the tire manufacturers customer service number. They may not help you, but at least the problem will be logged

 

Let me see if I can translate:

[I went to my local] dealer [who] tried to help [me with my] mini. [Their ] customer service [is soo ]poor.

I [had the MINI for ] 2,000 miles [ and I already have ] 3 blow[n] tires.

[This] should tell you [that] when you buy car with run flats, [it may be better] to leave it parked in driveway. [Run flats are not worth the extra hassle and replacing them cost me] $900.00. [ That's how much it cost me] to get rid of those freakin run flats, [and put on some kick as normal sports tires].

[So then right now I'm once again] happy with car [MINI} and [ the sucky] dealer mini cust [omer] service sucks [whale. I need to change dealers.]

The benefits of knowing two languages.

GOOD TO KNOW! I opted for the All-season Gooodyears and have had NO problems. This driver likey had the Dunlops then.
