Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Both front tires are exhibiting bubbled sidewalls on the lt235/85r16 tires suggesting early stages of tread separation from carcass. Driver's side looks to be out of round as well. Lot numbers are identical elw0408. No accident as yet, but appearance is worrisome based on listed failures in in the NHTSA database. After the recent reports on the poor tracking of tire failures and lack of accountability, I believe this report is relevant and pertinent to public safety.”
