Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have had 2 blowouts within a 3 month period of my front drivers' side goodyear weatherhandler fuel max tires. I was fortunate that it was a smooth stop but I'm concerned that I had two in such a short period of time with the tires only being 2 years old. I had my car checked out, front end checked and no problems there. The inside rim of both tires were dry rotted per one tire guy and unexplainable on how it would wear like it did.”
NHTSA complaint #10572880, filed 2014-03, 93,579 miles“I have owned a set of yokohama avids for the past 2 years and roughly 20,000 miles. In that time I have had 3 side wall failures. One from a pot hole, one from a raised man hole cover and one from a nail going through the sidewall. All three tires were completely destroyed. In 24 years of driving I have only had this happen these 3 times. The original set of tires were michelin's and there were no issues with side wall failures in over 50,000 miles.”
NHTSA complaint #10395118, filed 2011-04, 75,000 miles“Tire had a 1/16 inch wide by 1/2 inch length slit near the rim. Went to the tire manufacturer and I was told it was not a defect. When I first saw the slit, it was like a pulled tissue paper. Now it is two inches long. I got it replaced at a cost.”

I was planning a road trip this month & of course did all that was necessary including a vehicle checkup. After driving about 2 hours on the highway (w/ a break after an hour, which included another vehicle checkup), the steering wheel starting shaking violently & I saw smoke coming from the side of my car through my side view mirror. Pulled over to find that one of my tires was completely blown out & the side wall was torn. I was in complete shock. …”
