I rarely have to turn mine up more than 40%. My "crappy" Firestones make no noise.

thanks for the help

So actually It turned out ok
I called and had AAA tow it to the dealer, who replaced a fuse. When they did that the whole computer freaked out and shut down. So they went in and reprogrammed it and all is well. My new stereo sounds awesome and the repair only cost me 104.00. So I am a happy camper. Thanks everyone

If you have no issues with your Firestones, you are in the minority. Check out all the posts that trash the OE Firestones. Useless in the snow, and the loudest tire I have ever owned.

I really hate the noise when braking. As a former wrench, makes me think the brakes are defective.....LOL

But gotta get some miles out of them.

I have checked out the posts about the Firestones, however, I think most of the trash is about the 16" tires. Mine isn't that bad in the snow,but I don't drive too far in the winter,either.
