“My truck tires were bought at Costco in 2015 and had 70k Warranty or 6yrs WCF. My added truck mileage since then is 12k miles. I discovered my driver rear passenger tire go flat . I put the spare and took it to Costco for repair. Costco informed me that this is a tire defect as the tire had a side wall perforation. Tire cannot be repaired and a new replacement is required. I looked up Michelin tire recalls and found one issued in 2013 about Michelin X-Radial tires discussing this same defect but it did not include my tire size ( P245/70R17 ) . …”

NHTSA complaint #11709163, filed 2026-01

“As I was driving down the road my tire started going flat. After changing the tire and putting the spare on I noticed that where the tire went flat there had been separation from the outside tire and the inside of the tire rubber. I noticed that both my wrangler goodyear p265/70/r17 tires had bubbles in them where the tires are separating in the middle of the tread. The tires DOT number is 4bt6 fder 0610. This is definitely a manufacturing defect and should be looked into. The tires are on a 2010 Chevrolet 1500 pickup.”
