Interesting convo with Kumho Rep..
#31
I am paying the same monthly payment as my buds with new Explorers and they don't have half the options I have. Plus I parked next to my buds the other day, it's white too, and he says "Man it looks so much meaner and sportier then mine".

SS2 sorry for the traffic delays..as u know we don't make the call on tube closures unless its an emergency. Unfortunately the suits upstairs make those calls. We just gotta implement them. Let me ask, how are those Forteras you guys are riding on? They look kinda off road ish , are they quiet? INYADREEMS its a small world man that's too funny. Great job brother thanks for help and assistance. You better knock on wood though with that no issues yet comment HaHa.. V for Victory those cooled are big time comfy, gotta admit. These big Hemi engines throw off a lot of Heat especially in the summer. I have the maximum steel color so its pretty much black..between that & the black dash.. truck is a sweat breaker. When I first purchased I posted on here I felt the the wheel wells s and engine compartment were sealed up for noise that the heat has nowhere to go so would make its way back to passenger cabin. Have cooled seats in my Kia Optima and they are sweet. Nothing like cooling the zeppolies off after the gym Thanks for police week shout out bro!

HI,
I have the same issue with my 2015 Durango SXT. Does this bulletin cover my issue? The sound has been bothering me lately and I need a resolution.
Please advise.
Thank you.
