| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Coming home from a trip towing our travel trailer. the trailer which we bought new was about a year old and had the original four tires on it. the tires were carlisle st205/75r15 models. they were only as old as the trailer and had only about 2500 or so miles on them. they had plenty of tread like new and had no bulges on them. they were inflated at the proper 50psi cold as per the trailer manufacturer. two of the four tires blew out on our way home in separate incidences on july 26 and 28th during the same trip. the first blowout occurred on i-5 south of mt. shasta. the second occurred on i-40 east of barstow cal. the second blowout caused damage to the underneath of our trailer and to the electrical system of the trailer. i bought new tires on the trip so we could get home.i did not buy carlisle tires. the trailer is now at the dealer we bought it from having the damage evaluated. i will get a call from the dealer after they examine the trailer. they told me they will give me information on contacting the tire company regarding reimbursement for the four tires i had to buy to get home and the trailer manufacturer probably will cover repairs to my trailer. however, the dealer has not got back with me yet. they only picked up the trailer today. i returned the blown tires and the other two possibly defective tires to the dealer with the trailer as per their instructions. my trailer is a hilo travel trailer and that manufacturer is not in your list of manufacturers at the end of the form so i had to pick a company randomly from your list in order to submit this complaint. again my trailer is manufactured by hilo and not the company i picked from your list. *ak |
