SUBSEQUENTLY, ON 4/22/14 HONDA REPRESENTATIVE [XXX] RESPONDED TO MY LETTER OF 4/6/14. HE REFERRED ME TO CONTINENTAL TIRE & DENIED ANY COMPENSATION FROM HONDA. ON 4/23/14, ?[XXX]?

"TREAD WEAROUT UP TO A PREDETERMINED MILEAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS POLICY."SHE, TOO, REFUSED ANY ADJUSTMENT OR RESOLUTION TO THE PREMATURE TIRE WEAR.

UNUSUAL WEAR (INTERIOR EDGE CUPPING) AND NOISE DEVELOPED ON THE RIGHT-REAR TIRE DURING THE FIRST TWO YEARS OF OWNERSHIP (PURCHASED NEW - JANUARY 2011) RESULTING IN AN UNSAFE TIRE CONDITION. MECHANIC (USING COMPUTER ALIGNMENT METHOD) DISCOVERED THAT CAMBER ALIGNMENT WAS NOT WITHIN THE SPECIFIED RANGE, HOWEVER, THERE IS NO CAMBER ADJUSTMENT OPTION ON THE VEHICLE. WITHOUT THE PROPER CAMBER ALIGNMENT, TIRE DESTRUCTION (IN THIS CASE INTERIOR EDGE CUPPING) OCCURS RESULTING IN AN UNSAFE TIRE CONDITION. AN AFTER-MARKET PART IS AVAILABLE TO PROVIDE THE NECESSARY CAMBER ADJUSTMENT, HOWEVER, IT IS NOT A HONDA OEM PART AND HONDA DOES NOT ACKNOWLEDGE RESPONSIBILITY RELATED TO THE ISSUE. A VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE ROUTINE ADJUSTMENT MECHANISMS TO AVOID DESTRUCTION OF PARTS WHICH CREATES AN UNSAFE CONDITION WITHOUT HAVING TO REPLACE AN ORIGINAL OEM PART TO ACCOMMODATE A NECESSARY (AND HONDA RECOMMENDED - VEHICLE ALIGNMENT) ADJUSTMENT. *TR
