Michelin decides to replace 81,000 faulty tires free of cost reports SpinnyThings.com.au

(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 23, 2012 ) San Francisco, CA -- According to businessweek.com, tire manufacturing giant, Michelin, has voluntarily recalled about 841,000 Uniroyal and BF Goodrich tires because the thread can separate, resulting in rapid air loss.

Credit should be given to Michelin for taking steps to ensure drivers safety. According to the stats released by the company, separation was reported on around 150 tires. The top officials at Michelin have said the safety of drivers is above everything else and therefore, the voluntary recall was immediate to avoid any injuries or other losses.

Michelin North American in Greenville has already started to collect the faulty tires. For more details the company has requested the involved parties to visit their website or call their toll free numbers.

Although no injuries or deaths have been reported as of yet, the company wants to make sure that only best quality product reaches its customers. They have also decided to replace the tires free of cost. The tires were originally made as replacements for commercial heavy-duty full sized vans and lightweight trucks, the source further added.

The quality control team at one of the sites noticed an increase in the number of problems with Uniroyal and BF Goodrich tires and thought it was very important to the safety of the drivers, said Director of Technical Affairs at Michelin, Mike Wischhusen.

"We're taking this proactive action in order to protect our consumers and the driving public." Wischhusen said.

"We constantly monitor our products performance in the field and it was our own internal quality systems that caught this issue," Wischhusen said. "We caught it very early based on a very small number of returns."

Michelin also conducted internal tests to confirm the problem with the tires and it says the issues have been corrected in the more recent cases.

"A tire is a complex thing. There is rarely one thing you can pinpoint to cause something like this," Wischhusen said.

CarSafetyNews.org Reports 2012 Volvo S60 Earns Top Marks in New Insurance Crash Test

(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 23, 2012 ) Wilmington, NC -- The 2012 Volvo S60 has earned the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's (IIHS) new auto crash safety test's top mark of “good.” The Volvo's fine performance stands in stark, and probably surprising, contrast to the other luxury sedans that were tested.

The new test has been designed to replicate a collision when 25% of the driver's side of a car strikes another car or another 5-foot-tall stationary object at 40 miles per hour. According to the IIHS, many road deaths are caused by these accidents.

Talking about the S60's performance on the new test, John Maloney, president and CEO of Volvo Cars of North America, said, “When we decided to build a world-class sports sedan we made sure it was a great Volvo first and foremost. We set the benchmark on safety, and we continue to lead the crowd.”

Of the other 11 luxury sedans tested so far, only the Volvo and two others have passed.

(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 23, 2012 ) Little Rock, AR -- The neat thing about turbocharged cars is that they are fuel efficient despite being sporty, fast rides. However, the turbo cars that are offered today are just the beginning. The turbos that buyers should be really eager to get their hands on have not yet been officially released. Fortunately, the team at Auto Loan Arkansas has compiled a list:

The 2013 Buick Verano Turbo: Fitted with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine capable of churning at 250 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque.

The Volkswagen GTI: Long a big hit for hatchback lovers, there will soon be a turbocharged version of the GTI that should produce somewhere around 260 horsepower.

The 2013 Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG: Bound to be Mercedes' most powerful turbo car when it is released, the A45 will kick out a full 330 horses.

The 2013 BMW M3: This car will mark the M3's return a six-cylinder engine from its current V8. The twin-turbocharged V6 will probably scream out 450 horsepower.

More and more American buyers are opting to drive turbocharged vehicles, because they realize that a turbocharged engine offers a unique blend of effortless power and surprisingly good fuel economy.

St. Louis Used Cars Dealer Cross Keys Auto Sales Urges Drivers to Test Drive Before They Buy

0
0
 



(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 24, 2012 ) St. Louis, MO -- Buying a car is one of the largest investment choices an average consumer can make, so common sense predicates that a consumer would want to know everything about a car before deciding to buy it. However a recent study found that more and more consumers are skipping the test drive process when buying a car.

In fact, a recent study showed that in 2012 one out of every 10 people did not test drive the car they were buying. This is in large part because many consumers are relying solely on the Internet for the entire car buying process. Statistics show eight out of every 10 car buyers in 2012 used the Internet to complete some part of their buying process.

Cross Keys Auto Sales in St. Louis, Missouri, specializes in St. Louis used cars and has seen this trend developing with their customers over the past year as well.

“We are seeing customers buying cars without ever stepping foot on our lot, buying based on what they see on our website, which is great because we have a good website that allows users to see our entire 600 car inventory, but they miss out on the experience we offer at our lot,” says Stephen Capron, a customer service representative for Cross Keys Auto Sales.

The representative from the used car dealer St. Louis adds, “Test driving a car is an important part of the car buying experience because no matter how many reviews you read or pictures you look at, you can’t really know if you are going to like a car until you drive it. The auto industry is in a constant state of change, so the features on the cars of today are completely different than those on the cars of five years ago, which makes test driving cars and actually learning to utilize these new features all the more important.”

Rather than visiting car lots, people in the market for used cars for sale in Missouri may be using the Internet because they do not think they know enough to evaluate a car directly at the lot.

If lack of car knowledge is deterring a person from visiting a car lot, Stephen recommends bringing a friend who is educated about cars with them to test drive the vehicle they are considering purchasing. Stephen also suggests car buyers looking for used cars Missouri should write a checklist of the things they want in their next car and check them off as test drive cars and as they go through the entire buying process.

Many car dealers, including Cross Keys Auto Sales, even offer overnight test drives where people can see if the car they are looking at holds up to their daily routines.

The bottom line is the proliferation of the Internet is simplifying decision making for a lot of buying decisions, but this should not be the case when consumers are buying a car.

Time is Now for Distracted Driving Legislation in Florida, Says Orlando Car Accident Attorneys

0
0
(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 28, 2012 ) ORLANDO, FL -- The Orlando law firm of Wooten, Kimbrough & Normand. P.A. said today that recent developments have underscored the need for local and state officials in Florida to enact anti-distracted driving legislation. A recent Ohio State University from Ohio State University found that trying to do two visual tasks at once, like texting and driving, hurt performance in both tasks. Additionally, the neighboring state of Alabama became the 39th state in the country with a law banning texting and driving on August 1, 2012.

Florida is one of only 11 states that do not ban text messaging for all drivers. Part of the “Blueprint for Ending Distracted Driving” released by U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood in June calls for these remaining states to “enact and enforce this critical legislation.” While the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has said the number of fatal crashes has declined every year between 2005 and 2009, the percentage of fatal crashes involving distraction during that same time period increased from 10 percent in 2005 to 16 percent in 2009. In 2010, 18 percent of injury crashes in were reported as distraction-affected crashes.

“We agree with Secretary LaHood’s assessment that distracted driving is an epidemic,” Orlando personal injury attorney Ed Normand said. “Florida should do its part in helping enact and enforce the critical legislation outlined in the ‘Blueprint for Ending Distracted Driving.’”

The Orlando law firm of Wooten, Kimbrough & Normand. P.A. has been representing individuals injured in car and truck accidents since 1966. The personal injury lawyers have more than a century of combined legal experience, and have secured numerous verdicts and settlements in excess of $1 million for clients who have suffered catastrophic injuries or wrongful death cases.

Houston Truck Accident Lawyer Exposes the Truth About Dangerous Accidents

0
0
(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 29, 2012 ) Houston,Texas -- “I know distracted driving is dangerous when people do it, but I am always in control of MY vehicle, even when I’m on the cell phone!” This is the attitude of over half the drivers in the United States. Even drivers who believe their driving abilities are not impaired tend to take their eyes off the road for five seconds or more during texting or calling.

When tested in a simulator, drivers using a cell phone are four times more likely to be in an accident than drivers who do not use a cell phone. This risk is equivalent to someone who is legally intoxicated. If a person takes their eyes off the road for five seconds or greater (normal for texting drivers), they are eight times more likely to crash. The statistics are worse for truck drivers. When truck drivers take their eyes off the road to send or receive a text, a distraction of as little as five seconds on the highway translates into driving without looking at the road for the distance of a football field. Because of the time it takes to brake a large truck, truck drivers who exhibit distracted behavior are 23 times more likely to be involved in an 18 wheeler truck accident than non-distracted truck drivers. Interestingly, studies show that any distraction taking the eyes off the road for more than two seconds is considered at very high risk for an accident.

The accidents that result from texting are very preventable. Texting is the worst distraction tested. In Texas approximately 20% of driving fatalities are due to the use of the cell phone in some capacity. Texas is trying to proactively address concerns with distracted driving.

In April 2012, the Texas Department of Transportation launched a Talk. Text. Crash. Campaign. In Texas alone, more than 81,000 crashes involved distracted driving, 361 of them fatal in 2011. Unfortunately, when a crash involves a large tractor trailer and a smaller vehicle, the chances of a fatality are almost certain. As a result, the Texas government, in partnership with State Farm and Clear Channel Outdoor will be using various techniques to increase awareness of the dangers of distractions while driving.

The US Department of Transportation banned handheld cell phone use by truck drivers, commercial drivers and bus drivers in 2011. The state of Texas banned all cell phone use including texting, for newly minted drivers and bus drivers and has banned cell phone usage and texting for everyone in school zones. But there is still resistance to a total ban of cell phones and texting devices despite the clear data that these activities are dangerous. The hope is that this campaign will help change people’s minds and behavior. More answers to FAQs about trucking accidents are available on the Houston Trucking Lawyer website. Site visitors can also read more about the work the law firm does for trucking accidents.

About Houston Truck Accident Lawyers

Houston Truck Accident Lawyers are different from many other law firms because of their extensive experience in successfully resolving cases by settlement and trial and the personal attention that devoted to each client. Since 2006, their car and truck accident lawyers have recovered millions in settlements and verdicts on behalf of clients who were injured in 18 wheeler accidents and commercial vehicle accidents in both Houston, Texas, and in the United States.

1994 Honda Accord declared to be most stolen car in the U.S. reports YarraHonda.com.au

0

(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 31, 2012 ) San Francisco, CA -- A recent study finds that the most frequently stolen car in the U.S. is the 1994 Honda Accord, isn’t great news for all the owners out there. According to reports by the National Insurance Crime Bureau(NICB), this car has topped the most stolen list for four years in a row.

The reason for this trend is the car’s lack of extended security features and its popularity in the market. After the release of the car, Honda decided to incorporate systems where the car couldn’t be stolen if the driver didn’t have the key to it.

A close second on this list was another Honda model from 1998, launched a year before the security systems were fitted in the cars. The most shocking car which was located in the top three was the Ford F-150, which is a pickup, and this is the first time that a truck has been placed that high on the list released in previous years as well.
The Chevrolet pickup model of 1999 and the 2004 Dodge pickup also came in on the list taking the seventh and eighth spot respectively. Ford came in again at the ninth spot as well.

The 1991 Toyota Camry has remained a top favorite with many families in the U.S. and this car was number four on the list of most frequently stolen vehicles. Similarly, two other Sedans, namely the Acura Integra and Nissan were also in the top ten taking the sixth and tenth place respectively. The Dodge Caravan was the only mini-van seen in the list and it grabbed an astounding fifth spot.

The FBI has declared that car thieves are now able to find alternate key codes for vehicles, breaking their security systems, and can now easily steal the latest models as well.

However, on a good note, the overall rate of cars being stolen is steadily falling and has been the lowest since 1967.

Fuel Price Hikes: The Bike Bay Says Preference for Motorcycles Will Firm Up

(EMAILWIRE.COM, September 03, 2012 ) Chatswood, Australia -- Research shows that running a car costs two times more money than driving around a motorcycle or a moped, and the numbers back up the claim. The data confirms that an 18-year old individual driving a car is going to spend up to 3,500 AUD to have permission to drive on the road, while a 17-year old person driving a motorcycle will only have to spend around half, meaning no more than 1,800 AUD to spend on everything needed to ride a 50cc moped or a 125cc motorcycle. Australian based The Bike Bay helps customers save even more on new and used bikes, ATVs, cruisers, super sports and scooters.

Including everything from provisional license, paying for lessons and tests, accessories and equipment, to covering taxes and insurance premiums, getting a motorcycle is far more convenient than acquiring a new vehicle. According to the numbers, the largest cost of driving a car comes from extremely high insurance premiums, usually two or three times higher than the cost of motorcycle insurance. In addition to that, the cost of fuel, spare parts and maintenance services are all clarifying aspects in the motorcycle vs. car comparison.

“No matter what type of motorcycle one chooses to ride, it would still get you from point A to point B at a very low cost. You can run a bike off a single tank of fuel for two weeks, rather than spending tens of dollars filling up the car tank every other day. Since predictions regarding fuel cost are not optimistic, I would advise people to consider the many advantages of driving motorbikes, such as lower costs, greater independency, added convenience and low maintenance”, says representative of The Bike Bay, an online store offering new and used motorcycles, ATVs, off-road, cruisers, super sport and other types of powerful two-wheelers.

The entire range of motorcycles for sale The Bike Bay provides can be accessed at their online store, where customers are able to search for the vehicle of their choice using several criteria, including condition, type, brand, price, build year, state, etc. Offering new and used models of Yamaha, Honda, Harley Davidson, Kawasaki and other popular manufacturers, with prices starting from $1,500 and several finance options available too, The Bike Bay makes it a whole lot easier for customers to make the switch from expensive cars to cost-effective motorbikes.

As the Sale of New Cars is on the Rise in Australia, Used Car Dealer Australian Vehicle Wholesale Hopes Success Will Carry On To Used Cars

(EMAILWIRE.COM, September 14, 2012 ) Brisbane,Queensland -- According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Australian car retailers saw a big jump in business in August, with the sale of new cars jumping 6.2% over the previous month, when retailers saw a big slowdown in the sale of new vehicles.

According to a report released by The Australian Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries VFACTS report, car sales increased from 88,082 for the month of July to 93,552 in the month of August, with a significant increase coming from the sale of sport utility and light commercial vehicles. The same report shows that during the eight month period leading up to August, car sales were up 9.4% from the same period last year. The Sydney Morning Herald went onto say that the numbers show that Australian residents are willing to shell out for big ticket items.

The owner of Australian Vehicle Wholesale, a used car dealer in Brisbane, is hoping the jump in the sale of new cars will also mean a big increase in sales levels for used vehicles.

“A strong new car market also generally means a strong used car market,” said the owner of the dealership, selling a variety of vehicles from Toyota Landcruisers in Brisbane to used 4x4s in Brisbane. “When we see big numbers coming out like this in the new car market, we’re optimistic that we’re also going to see an increase in sales.”

“Generally, when people are going out and purchasing new cars at high levels, then they’re feeling confident in the market, and are willing to spend money,” said the dealership owner. “This is good for the used car market, because those people that don’t have the means to necessarily purchase a new car are going to feel confident enough to go out and purchase a used car that is more in line with their budget.”

“The reports have shown that SUVs and 4x4s are doing the best when it comes to new vehicle sales, and we’ve seen the same trends with our stock of used 4x4s for sale in Brisbane,” said the dealership owner. “Every trend that is being shown in the new car market is also trickling down to the used car market, including the growing sales numbers for Toyotas in Australia. For example, we’ve seen a number of customers looking for the Toyota Hilux for sale in Brisbane recently, and new car dealers are reporting that many buyers are searching for Toyota models.”

Australian Vehicle Wholesale hopes that the strength in the car sales market continues for the remainder of the year, and that the used car market also continues to see strong sales.

“We’re optimistic,” said the owner of the dealership, which is one of the biggest used 4x4 dealers in Brisbane. “We, like other car dealers were feeling nervous after the weak July reports, but we’re back on track to have a great year.”

About the Company

Used Vehicle Dealer Black & McFadden Respond to Reports of Jump in Australian Vehicle Sales, Particularly SUVs, and Light Commercial Vehicles

(EMAILWIRE.COM, September 14, 2012 ) Brisbane,Queensland -- A VFACTS report by the Australian Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries showed that new car retailers saw a big boost in sales in August, over the much softer month of July, and according to the report, the jump was led by sales of larger vehicles, including SUVs and light commercial vehicles.

The report showed that the sale of new sport utility vehicles increased 18.6 percent over the previous year and the sale of light commercial vehicles increased 19.1 percent over last year. The heavy truck market also showed an increase of nearly 12 percent over 2011.

Black & McFadden, which established a subsidiary of the company, Black Outback 4x4, feels optimistic about the boost in sales of vehicles in Australia, particularly sports utility vehicles and light commercial vehicles. Black Outback 4x4 focuses on the sale of these types of vehicles, and specializes in the sales and service of 4 wheel drives, used 4x4s in Brisbane and light commercial vehicles in Brisbane.

“While the report focused on the sale of new vehicles, we’re also excited to see an increase in the sale of used cars in Brisbane as a result,” said the owner of Black & McFadden. “We specialize in the types of vehicles that are seeing the biggest boom in sales, and when people are buying new vehicles, they’re also generally feeling the confidence to buy used vehicles as well.”

The owner of Black & McFadden credits the high sales numbers for SUVs and light commercial vehicles with the fact that business owners are feeling more confident, and ready to invest in their business, with the big ticket items.

“The types of vehicles we focus on, particularly in Black Outback 4x4 are the vehicles that are generally needed by business owners, particularly the light commercial vehicles,” said the owner of the dealership that also offers car finance in Brisbane. “When we see an increase in these types of vehicles it creates a sense of optimism not only for the sales of cars and vehicles, but also for the entire economy, because it shows that business owners are willing to spend the money and are confident enough to spend money for their businesses.”

The report conducted by the Australian Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries showed that in addition to the high sales numbers for SUVs, 4x4s and light commercial vehicles, Toyota led in the sales for the month of August in Australia, with 19.2 percent of the new car market.

“The same trends that are happening in the new car market and usually also happening in the used car market,” said the owner of Black & McFadden. “We, like the new car retailers in Australia have seen a large number of customers looking for used Toyotas in Brisbane. We like to see these kinds of sales numbers happening, and we feel like we’re a mirror of the new car market; we’re hoping to continue that momentum for the remainder of the year, and avoid the soft spots like we saw in July.”

Huge number of Sports Cars rusting away as Auction Department Disbanded reports A1AutoTransport.com

(EMAILWIRE.COM, September 15, 2012 ) San Francisco, CA- A massive number of sports cars are likely to remain in limbo as Greece’s auction department has been disbanded by the government. Earlier, numerous motorcycles had also been in a similar predicament in the wake, and the same is feared about those immensely valuable cars.

The Greece government is facing the worst era of recession. Most of the country’s departments have become a burden on its slumping economy. The Greece government was supporting the auction department for many years, but they have now pulled back from any further help of the department.

ODDY, the organization for public property, has failed to keep its head above the water due to the poor economy. The organization has created numerous problems for the state to satisfy foreign creditors. The state has taken the step to disband the auction department in order to save public money.

The ODDY has been suffering from economic losses for a decade. It was subsequently included in the list of unnecessary entities back in 2011.

Many in Greece believe that the OODY was essentially disbanded years before, as far as its operation system is concerned. They hold it was an organization merely in name and on the books, rather than in reality. The employees and the public expressed their disappointment over the closing of the auction department.

George Chronopoulos, who served in the same department and retired last year said, "I feel disappointed. This is not what we dreamed of. I used to love my job. But now I cannot find a reason to stay.”

Dimitris Kouvaris, who has been running this body since March said, "Our aim is to reduce spending, achieve better control of expenses and upgrade services,"

"Of course, we have technical and operational problems which we are trying to overcome, and also labour-related issues, since the workforce has been significantly reduced." said Kouvaris.

Icebear Motorsports Comments on ATV Industry’s Opposition to Rollover Devices

(EMAILWIRE.COM, September 14, 2012 ) Brisbane,Queensland -- The motorsport industry is big business in Australia, with a huge number of motorsports enthusiasts, and a recent decision by the All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) industry means that many suppliers and retailers are rethinking safety when it comes to Australian motorsports.

The ATV industry, along with the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI), called for proposals rejecting the use of rollover devices in ATVs. According to a report conducted by Dynamic Research Inc. (DRI), Rollover Protection Systems (ROPS) and Crush Protective Devices (CPD) on ATVs can actually cause a high risk level for injury relative to the benefits offered by the devices.

Cameron Cuthill, FCAI motorcycle manager, responded to the findings, saying “The findings of the DRI research report cannot be disputed. The research is state-of-the-art technology and is based upon published research and relevant portions of international research standards, as expected of a quality report. It confirms that rollover devices, and in particular so-called ‘crush protective devices’, should not be fitted to ATVs.”

“This is important to the ATV and motorsport industry,” commented the owner of Icebear Motorsports, a retailer of cheap import quad bikes in Brisbane, and cheap imported dirt bikes in Brisbane.

“When it comes to motorsports, safety is the top concern for both retailers and customers, and it’s alarming that these devices that are supposed to increase safety in motorsports vehicles are actually very dangerous.”

The ATV industry has released a statement urging all those involved with the sale or buying of ATVs and other motorsports vehicles to review the findings of the DRI report with care and study the claims made by CPD suppliers and supporters.

In addition to rollover device warnings, Cuthill offered other words of warning to people who engage in activities involving motorsports vehicles, saying “ATVs are not toys and should not be treated as such. Unfortunately, while the focus remains on rollover devices, real solutions will continue to be ignored. Attention should instead be maintained on helmet use, training and keeping children off full-size ATVs.”

“These are claims that we take very seriously,” said the Icebear Motorsports owner, who offering cheap quad bikes for sale in Brisbane, along with cheap dirt bikes for sale in Brisbane. “We’re going to review the DRI findings, along with any other research we can find on the topic, and we’re going to urge all of our customers to do the same. Safety is a priority with all of the products we sell, and that’s something that will continue as a vital part of our business.”

About the Company

Icebear Motorsports has been selling off-road vehicles in Australia since July 2007. The dealership is located in Brisbane, with distributors all around Australia. Icebear also sells directly to the public. In addition to ATVs, dirt bikes and quads, Icebear also offers a great selection of cheap dune buggies in Brisbane.
