Michelin Tires Reviews

Michelin latitude tires came with new car Ford Edge 2019 245/60R18. Less than 30000 tread almost gone and I do not drive on rock! Employee at ford dealership stated on new cars they do not put Michelins on. Wear out too quick!

The Michelin Fall sale rebate October 2022, the rebate does not apply to Costco. I submitted the purchase proof forms and they denied my Costco tire purchase. https://www.michelinman.com/auto/dealer-campaign/michelin-fall-promotion-2022

Customer service representative reached out to me and did his research. I was given 75% of the cost in return. Very happy customer.

I’ve Just got 2022 RAV4 Hybrid and was so happy and excited after 7 and a half months waiting. After 2 weeks of driving and enjoying my new car and I got flat tired today. I Took it to dealership and got it patched up and paid $45 dollars for it. OMG.

I purchase Michelins every time I purchase tires because that is what came on my car. Dumb Idea. They never lasted the warranty mileage. NEVER. The last set purchased in 2019 still had Tread, deep tread left, but kept losing air. When I took my car to a mechanic after driving from Florida to Ohio, I had a mechanic look at the tires and tell me "You are lucky you made it here alive." They are Dry Rot and they are with a bunch of tread. He said at least 30K miles left of tread but dry rot through and through, sidewalls between the tread everywhere. So I researched and supposedly this has been fixed. So I bought new tires, Michelins. MISTAKE. I feel stupid.

My Michelin tires were recommend for my 2012 Prius. 60,000 they were worn out. I paid almost double of the Goodyear TIRES LIKE CAME ON THE CAR NEW AND I GOT 50,000 MILES OUT OF THEM. And they were suppose to be quieter. I really couldn't hardly tell the difference. I'm now on my 4th set of tires and These are the quietest set I have ever had on either of my Prius's. The local tire shop sold them to me 60,000 mile warranty Priny Tires.

This is my first set of Michelin tires and I like the solid feel and stability as I drive. I have a Buick Enclave that has had these tires since 2017. We have 37000 miles and the tires look great. I am planning a trip to Florida and the tires give me the confidence I need.

Buy the Sports Pilots in whatever size required. Get the lifetime rotate and balance also the road hazard plan. Drive away. You will think you are in someone else car. Tires will last maybe 80k, less with abuse which given the way the handling feels will be difficult not to do.

We purchased these tires because of the warranty. We believed the Michelin Defenders were covered for 80-90 thousand miles. However, we had a tire go bad at under 50000 miles. We called the company and got nowhere. We later learned we were responsible to pay the local tire company that installed them an additional fee to access the warranty. WHY ON EARTH did we pay so much for tires only to find out the initial high cost did not help with a hole in the tire?

I have been buying Michelin tires for over twenty-five years. I have always been impressed by their quality and craftsmanship. This is very important for the safety of my family. The dealers I have purchased them from have always been courteous and professional.

The Michelin Defender tires give superb traction in every type of weather, but really excel in rainy and snowy conditions! The tires provide great traction, providing a high level of comfort and safety.

Have F 350DRW 4x4 tow a 15000lb fifth Wheel handled and the wear was far superior to any brand tire had on my truck has 275000 miles and the traction in the snow and heavy rain has been extremely good.

We didn't know if it was tires or alignment problem. Took to regional shop and replaced all 4 tires and what a difference! Car runs smoothly to the point where not sure of speed. Very impressed with these tires and the warranty they offer.

I did extensive homework looking for tires for my Ford Transit 250 and my Lincoln MKX. Both vehicles came with tires that had no wet traction and were dangerous on snow. Odd tire sizes on both vehicles made for limited choices. Michelin came through with not only have the right sizes but exceptional tires "Defender Series" that give me confidence in rain or snow.

MAVIS TIRES of Cumming GA. I cannot believe after spending more than $1000. This is what I get…awful tires that are peeling apart! You do not need to be an expert to see that the tires are defective! They look like DRY ROT! What makes matters worse is the service I received from MAVIS TIRES in CUMMING, GA. Even the tire tech, CJ, said, “Wow, I’ve NEVER seen this!” He took pictures, and sent them to his boss, Paul… I was there and heard him on the phone. An entire week went by and NO ONE even called me.

I've been riding on Michelin rubber over 40 years, both cars and motorcycles, that stops today. After spending over an hour, being disconnected multiple times on their clearly flawed phone system, I was finally able to speak to customer service rep Richard. Richard had the unfortunate task of informing me that his supervisor said that if I could not produce proof of purchase to establish I had obtained the tire new, there was nothing they could do! As is common, I needed only a rear tire but purchased the set 3ish years ago as a cash deal from a vendor while at Daytona Bike Week, I am on the opposite coast so tracking down P.O.P. is not an option.

I bought a set of Michelin tires April 5, 2021. I really like the tires. There was a $120 virtual rebate card offered with the purchase of the tires. I submitted the rebate on April 8th. It's May 25th and still no rebate. Every time I call I get told a different story. I was assured it would be issued last Thursday. When I called to check why I didn't receive it I was informed it would be another 2 weeks. What lousy customer service. Nothing like having your money held hostage so they can collect interest on it. From now on I will only buy tires from Goodyear.

Bought new Michelin Defenders when original tires work out on 2018 Sierra 2500 HD. Worked great until hooked up Camp Trailer and headed South. Made it 120 miles down the freeway and couldn't go over 60 mph. It was like driving on jello, my wife was in tears and I refused to go any further. Had to stop and buy another brand of tires to continue trip. Tires only had 1705 miles on them. Michelin refused to due anything after the fact since I replaced them with a competitors tire. I have always had Michelin tires on every vehicle until now. This experience has really changed my thinking. I would not have believed it if I hadn't experienced it myself. The tire size with the problem is LT265/60R20.

Have been a Michelin consumer for 40+ years. Have had excellent service. The tires on my VW TDI BEETLE before the present ones had 100,000+ miles on them. Only reason replaced was cracked in sidewalls, tread still good. However the present Defender tires only have approximately 60,000 and rear tire tread won't pass and front tires are close. Very disappointed. Will have them all replaced. Told Michelin Defender still best for my VW TDI Beetle 2005. Had alignment and rotations done.

On 8/30/2017 my 2017 Lexus Rx 350 SUV was delivered by Fresno Lexus with original and new Michelin 235/55R20 Premium LTX tires. Today on 12/7/2020 total milage on the SUV is only 26,750 but treads on each of the 4 tires is worn down to 2/32. So in spite of regular tire rotations and relatively low milage the effective tread life of these premium and expensive Michelin tires is less than 25k compared to 60 k warranty. I have read quite a few other customer reports of less than 50% effective lifespan of these tires. I wonder if 2017 was a bad year due to materials used in manufacture of these particular tires. Wondering if I should buy these again in 2020 to replace the current worn-out ones. I will be filing a warranty claim with Michelin.

Please read! IF you have Michelin tires and have a vibration while driving have the shop put the vehicle on a lift and have them watch the tires as they spin! If they move up and down or side to side the tires are out of round and no matter how many times you try to balance them the issue will not go away! I previously has issues with the Michelin Premier LTX tires for my 2007 4runner, Will add the old review for those tires. But I had those brand new tires removed because 3 out of 4 were out of round meaning they would move up and down and side to side when spinning on a lift in 4 wheel drive. So, went to these and 2 out of the 4 had the same issue, BRAND NEW TIRES! Michelin tires are now terrible out of round garbage! ALL OF THEM!

Bought these at Discount Tires in November 2019 (less than 1 year ago) and I have less than 11K miles on them. They are worn down to the warning level. I can't believe a tire with a life expectancy of 60K miles is nearly done at less than 11K! Sales guy told me today that they knew when I bought these that they do not wear well. Had they told me that when I bought them, I would have opted for the second best recommended tire. Discount Tires won't replace them because they aren't completely wore to baldness.

Purchased 4 tires 8.2019. In for service 8.2020 and told 2/4 needed replacement? Tread-wear gone. Proper servicing and alignment done, etc. This is the 2nd set of tires on this vehicle, same driver, same dealer, garage kept. Last 2 sets lasted 40,000 miles EACH and they were much less than Michelin. Expected a lot more for my money! They want to prorate at a cost of $200 per tire for a replacement? I haven't even owned them a year. Have tried multiple times to contact Michelin via phone, chat, letters and email. No help without case number. Same methods of contacting dealer. 0 customer help from either party despite all contact.

I have these BFG Comp 2 Tires for a few months now in 2020 and they are great, awesome wet and dry handling. No fear going into turns with my heavy BMW 550i GT. Great tire. Great price and also looks good.

After leaving a couple of bad reviews on some websites, lo and behold Jon from Michelin called me to apologize and sent me a check for $540.00 to offset the cost of replacing the tires. I appreciate Michelin making the situation right, and will consider them next time I need to replace my tires.

Purchased 4 new Michelin LTX All Season Luxury SUV tires on May 5, 2018 at Costco. These tires have a 60,000 mile warranty. After 31,000 miles, there is almost no tread left on all tires. Very dissatisfied with mileage and Michelin. After seeing similar complaints on this site, it sounds like Michelin is not making quality tires anymore.

Worst experience I've ever had with tires AND customer service! I usually never complain on these websites so this is my first time doing this. 2017 Michelin tires wore through on my GMC Acadia at only 30,000 miles! In December 2019, Customer Service Rep (Kylie) told me I`d get reimbursed through the Warranty and nothing has happened since. It`s been almost FIVE MONTHS and no check in the mail.

I’ve always used Michelin tires and have been happy with them until now. I purchased a set of Michelin Premier AS for my Volvo in December of 2019 and have only put 21,000 miles on them as of yesterday. This is a 60,000 mile rated tire. Half the tread life is gone at this point on the tires. Yesterday when I went in for a rotation the manager said there was no way these would last for 60,000 miles and he would recommend a pro rate on a different set at my next rotation. How does that make any sense?? I get to spend more money on tires because these tires are junk??? My next set certainly won’t be Michelin.

After 14,469 mile my right rear tire failed grossly. I bought the tires from Amazon (bad idea). I'm trying to get warranty but not much luck without a tire store to help me. No way to get to talk to Amazon and tire stores don't want to help if you didn't buy it there. Called Michelin and got a case # but it looks like it stops there.

I have an RV with 6 Michelin tires, after 12,000 miles side wall rupture on front tire called for me to replace both fronts. I had replace with Goodyear due to the inventory in the star of Florida on this tire was 0. After speaking With a customer service representative at Michelin, Alvin Who might I add was very argumentative told me that Transit Pros who came out to replace it deemed it a road hazard. I told them that that’s impossible. The fellow that came out to replace the tire inspected it thoroughly and said that it was obviously a manufacturer defect. Many photos were taken.
