New Tires for 2018 Toyota Sienna SE in Just a Year

I replaced four brand new tires (Firestone Destination LE3 BL 235/50R19 99H 70,000 Mile) last year and they were already worn out badly after just 20,000 miles. They warranted 70,000. What a joke.

As we’re heading into skiing season, I need good tires to be safe on the road when we drive to Vermont. Last year, I also bought road hazard protection for $138 for 4 tires; therefore, I took my 2018 Toyota Sienna SE back to Firestone to see if they were going to replace them.

The technician agrees that they were worn out, but then Firestone only covers about 50%. For the safety of my family, I paid $615 to get four brand new tires—the same Destination model. I am disappointed with Firestone. After this set, I will go back to Michelin at Costco. The Firestone Destination tires didn’t hold up well.

To meet the warranty, I have to schedule for rotations every 5,000 miles and alignments every 10,000 miles. My car is now 95,000 miles. We’ll see how long these tires will last. It’s such a pain now that I have to keep track of all of these things. I hate dealing with car issues.
