I have purchased 4 vehicles from other dealerships and I must say by far this has been the best dealership I have done business with. We arrived there with a new vehicle in mind with a specific price limit. More

Chapman BMW On Camelback responded

We have attempted to work on this with you, you have rejected our attempt and we apologise for not being able to resolve this with you even with clear explanation: Thanks for the reply, FYI I did pull the vehicle file and reviewed it with my General manager, the Service Manager and the Tire shop foreman. A new tire has 9/32 or 8mm of tread from the bottom of the center tread groove. The BMW CPO guideline states “measure from the wear bar” since the wear bar is legally worn out. From the wear bar a new tire measures 7/32 or 7mm of usable tread. So as you can see definitions are important in safety or accuracy inquires. Here is what is documented in your vehicles repair history. On March 4th 2009 we performed a CPO inspection. Your vehicle had 14,814 miles on it. On that inspection we measured the following The front tires had 4mm or 5/32 of usable tread from the wear bar. The rear tires had 3mm or 4/32 of usable tread from the wear bar. The tread depth met with BMW guidelines on a CPO vehicle at that time. On May 19th 2012 the vehicle returned for a service visit. The miles were 25,550 or 10,736 miles later. The Technician measured according to his inspection sheet. The front tires had 2/32 or 1mm over the wear bar. A little tread left but getting close to the end of the service life. The Rear Tires had 0/32 or 0mm as they were at the wear bar. They needed to be replaced at that time. P.S. the tires did have a 2006 Date code and the http://www.rma.org/ Rubber Manufactures of America and the tire manufactures state 5 years is the guideline for tire replacement regardless of tread life remaining. Judging the tread depth in the documentation from both measure points and the miles used it appears the wear and the measurement along with the total miles on the vehicle are in check. I reviewed your Dealer rater post (I pasted it below to help) and the picture. I assume it was a picture of the replaced rear tires, it does have the trade mark inner wear of a independent rear suspension. The Measurements’ from the tire store are “probably” from the bottom of the tread groove 9mine are from the wear bar ) (the wear bar is 2/32) . Even with that it almost appears the tire added tread after out inspection 10k miles of use. The other thing I find distressing is the comment about the front tires. If the tire date code is 2006 and the tire has 9/32 of tread when new how does it have 9/32 of tread now? Were the tires replaced before? The date code on the tire says ‘probably not” Only you know for sure. Rest assured there are so many “watch dogs” out there a new car dealer really tries to do the right thing all of the time to the best of its human capabilities. Communication and definitions are paramount to accuracy. I am genuinely concerned and would like an opportunity to improve my business and earn your trust once again. I only ask a little of your time, if you still have the rear tires I would like to inspect them, if you have not replaced the front tires I would like to inspect them. You are welcome to witness any and all inspection process on your vehicle and speak with my tire shop team one on one. As a sign of goodwill if the front tires are the original I would be pleased to work out a compromise to make sure you are once again comfortable with the Chapman Family name and our dealership. I am truly committed to your loyalty as a Chapman client, please let me know what I can do. Howard Graff, Esq. Parts Director
