Poor product or poor dealer... either way, poor

Purchased at a Tire Kingdom in New Smyrna Beach, FL a few years ago. Felt that Michelin was a respected brand of tire. Today, with less than 30,000 miles driven on these tires, I'm being told by the same Tire Kingdom that they need to be replaced. I'm not sure if this is an issue with the Michelin Premier tires or with Tire Kingdom just wanting to push more product. Whichever, I will not be using Tire Kingdom or Michelin tires again.

Not a good impression for this 1st time Michelin buyer.

I live in Northern WI and the winters here can present a challenge. I replaced the half worn OE Nexens on my 2015 Kia Soul (28k mi on vehicle) as the Premier A/S came very highly rated in every forum I researched. I couldn't be more disappointed in their performance. I've had them on for two weeks and 600mi and these are my findings: I have a vibration that causes my hand to fall asleep at 56mph: I have lost nearly 3mpg: The tires seem to wander on various paved surfaces and need constant correction to maintain a strait line of travel: They are NO quieter than the half worn Nexens that were on my vehicle. Had balanced 3 times already...

RAPID TREAD WEAR!

Got a set of these tires for our Subaru Forrester 2 1/2 years ago, rode under 37,000 miles with them, and today Subaru service agents are saying they need replacing with treads at 3/32 for two of them, 4/32 for one and 2/32 for the fourth!! How do you get 60,000 miles out of these disappointing Michelin tires? We like Michelin, but now considering other makes. Maybe Michelin is no longer the company it used to be?

TyronWear, sorry to read that your tires need to be replaced but fortunately there is a mileage warranty. One of our team members will be in touch to work with you and your local dealer on initiating a warranty claim.

Horrible treaflife, good traction

Tire is great in rain, however just like everyone else the tire only lasted 33k miles. Extremely disappointed with Michelin. We bought these premium tires because of the 60k mileage warranty, and while there is warranty who the heck wants to battle Michelin on getting the warranty? Have you read the warranty? Need to document every tire rotation, can't have one tire more with more tread depth than the other, etc. so many ways to deny. Won't be going with Michelin brand anymore.

Operator101, I don't see that you have been in contact with our Consumer Care team. We'd suggest having the selling retailer (if possible) inspect the tires and call us while you are there with their findings so that we will know how to proceed.

Good performing tire but wears out quickly.

Good all weather performance, smooth ride, but wear out very quickly. I'm at 2/32 after 47000 mostly highway miles on a light weight Honda fit. From reading the reviews I'm apparently one of the lucky ones to squeeze that many miles out of them, but the treadwear warranty is 60000 and Consumer Reports "estimated" 80000 miles in their review when the premier first came out. I will not be buying these again strictly due to premature wear.

MICHELIN Premier A/S

I had these tires installed on a 2001 ACURA EL in size 195/65R15 as a replacement for Michelin Primacy MXV4. Premier A/S are a replacement for a very proven and exceptional Primacy MXV4 which I installed on my vehicle in April of 2010. Tire installer actually informed me that there is no reason to replace the MXV4 since they had 70% tread remaining; but I informed him that based on age of the tire (7.5 years and 70,000 km) that I wanted them replaced. He could not believe the shape that MXV4's were in. I am a fan of michelin product. In fact, all my tires have been michelin and I just installed DEFENDER LTX M/S on my 2014 Lexus RX350.

Already Worn Out by 2/3rd of the Rated Miles

These are the OEM tires that came on my Pacifica Hybrid when we purchased the vehicle new. The vehicle just crossed over 40k miles on the odometer and these tires are very near the end of their service life (down to the last 2/32" of tread). Other than the rather disappointingly fast wear (for tires warrantied for 60k miles), they drive well in most normal driving conditions (dry, wet, highway speeds), but are TERRIBLE in the snow. I'm not sure if it's because of the high amount of instant torque the hybrid drivetrain makes or it's just these tires, but it's very difficult to get traction from a stop. Even in wet conditions, if you try to pull away from a left/right hand turn, it'll lose traction on the inside wheel and spin the tire. I drive my other car (much lighter sedan) with BFGoodrich tires on it similarly and it rarely breaks free.

Disappointed and shocked - needs replacement at 33K

We bought these tires in January 2020 from Costco. Tires only lasted about 33k miles and now I've been told that they need replacement. We bought the tires at 48,013 miles on our vehicle. Our Vehicle recently hit 81k miles. Car wouldn't pass inspection because of the tires and now i am looking at another expensive tire bill just so i can pass inspection. I was just looking to buy a set of Michelin Defender 2 and thought of checking reviews on the Premier A/S. Glad i did. i have receipts and all from the purchase. Michelin, what can you do to help us here?
