| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: In december of 2003 my wife had a michelin x radial plus sidewall blowout on her 94 t-bird. we replaced two tires a that times so they would be equal on the axle. then yesterday another michelin x radial plus sidewall blew on the same car only in the front this time. tire pressure was checked last week and the tread wear was even in both cases. we replaced both the remain two last night. the original set as well as the replacedment tires were purchased at costco. the first incident occured with 50% of the tread remaining the second time there was 25% tread left. the tires were approximately 3 years old. if everyone who bought these has had a 2 out of 4 failure rate, theres a problem. |
