Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: In less that 2 months, all four tires on my van failed. the first failed when the tire tred came loose from the tire casing causing the tire to be unbalanced. the second occurred a few days later when we were travelling down the freeway at 60 miles per hour. the tire tred separated totally from the tire and the tire lost all air pressure. i was able to stop safely. the third tire had tire tred that appeared to be uneven. when i deflated the tire, it appeared like the first with soft spots around the diameter of the tire. the fourth tire had a circular crack around the sidewall and looked like it would have eventually blown out. in july, i travelled in nevada and idaho where the temperature approached 100 degrees. this might have had an effect on the first 3 tires.( dot number: 6f66 tire size: 30 x 9.5 x ) |
