At 26,000 miles on my highway only, well maintained Toyota Avalon Hybrid the tires were so noisy I thought someone swapped out their off road mudder tires. I was embarrassed to drive the car.  I contacted Hankook America.  They would not do a thing to remedy the situation insisting I have the alignment checked.  The Toyota dealer did that for me and the results were near perfect.  Still no discount or help at all.  I gave them several opportunities to make an acceptable agreement for both of us to no avail.  I replaced them with Michelin Primacy Tour all season tires.  The handling, ride comfort, and fuel economy were all much better with the Michelin tires that were also less expensive.  I will not accept a Hankook tire on any new cars or trucks I purchase in the future.
