“The tread peeled off both tires within 3 days of each other at normal highway driving speed. Thank god that they didn't fail when we were driving on the blue ridge parkway's hairpin turns, or I probably wouldn't be here to send this email. These dunlop tires were installed on 6/14/2000 by tire kingdom. They were replaced this morning with goodrich tires.( DOT number: tire size: p255/70r15 )”
NHTSA complaint #728902, filed 2000-08“I had the typical firestone experience except this time it was with a GM model and a different type of tire. The tread on this tire just peeled right off. Luckily, I'm alive to talk about it. Firestone said it was underinflated. I disagree. I used the best and most efficent mechanic in town and he always keeps the pressure adjusted properly for the appropriate season. All the tires were original equipment. I saved the other 3 tires so when you investigate you can tell if my tires were underinflated or not. (DOT number: vn11b1a428 tiresize: lt24575r16)”
NHTSA complaint #753214, filed 2001-10“Tire blowout. Tread is gone and in the river. Only sidewalls remain. Talked to dealer and they sent me to firestone. Firestone said it was just a tire that went flat while driving.( DOT number: vn11b1a089 tire size: lt24575r16 )”
