Firestone Tires
 
Anybody know if Honda Canada has (or will) replace/recall vehicles with
Firestone Tires?

Re: Firestone Tires
 
Why would they? The problem with Firestone was only with the Ford Explorer.
There are no known problems with the Firestone tires that came on the Civics
except for the fact that they were really crappy. Also, I noticed that the
new 2004 Civic comes with Bridgestone tires. Not like they're much better
but I doubt Honda is about to start putting Michelins in the Civic. It
would just cost too much.

Firestone makes some good tires... you just have to buy their expensive
ones. Some of the best tires I've had were Firestone SH30 performance
tires - they stuck like glue and had good performance wet or dry.

Re: Firestone Tires
 
I read an article in the newspaper of a class action settlement
with Bridgestone/Firestone for Firestone tires. The problem was
certainly not only with the Firestone tires on the Explorer.
There was a long list of tires covered by the litigation
settlement. The Article I saw was in the Chicago Tribune,
perhaps if you did a web search there you could find the
information you need.
