Premature and abnormal tire wear on my 2023 Toyota bZ4X, confirmed by two independent tire shops, despite consistent Toyota dealer maintenance every 6,000 miles. Beaverton Toyota dealer dismissed the condition as “normal,” but both [XXX] and Discount Tire documented unsafe tire wear caused by alignment. --- Details of Problem: Vehicle serviced exclusively at Toyota dealer (Beaverton Toyota, OR) every 6,000 miles, with multipoint inspections and rotations. On 9/22/25, Toyota dealer inspected the vehicle and reported that alignment and tires were “normal.” On 9/25/25, [XXX] inspected the vehicle and documented severe outside shoulder wear on the right-side tires. They recommended immediate tire replacement for safety. Alignment was also adjusted at that time to bring values into balance (report attached). On 9/27/25, Discount Tire replaced all four tires at 27,562 miles. Their written notes confirm edges were worn on all four tires due to alignment (right side more prominent). They declared the tires unsafe for continued use and recommended full replacement. Safety Concern: This abnormal alignment-related wear created unsafe driving conditions well before the rated tire life (55,000 miles). Uneven edge wear and shoulder failure increase the risk of blowouts, hydroplaning, or sudden loss of control.
