“I have had 6 blow outs or bumps in my times in 2.5 years with these contiprocontact 245/40 r 18 97v tires in normal, urban driving. The rep at the dealership told me that this is a very common issue with these tires and he does not recommend them to anyone. The most recent blowout happened with I was driving 40 MPH and I did not hit a pothole or bump. That tire was only 3 months old when it blew. In the previous 10 years, I had 2 blow outs on my previous. Please investigate”
NHTSA complaint #11234826, filed 2019-07, 74,000 miles“E350 sport model w/ 18 inch amg wheels and low profile tires. Jan 19 I hit a pothole on a busy bridge during rush hour. My 5th blowout of a front tire on the same car. Narrowly missed hitting a tractor trailer as my car swerved as the tire rapidly deflated. Two tires were replaced in this incident because a rear tire had a sidewall bubble develop after hitting the pothole.. One amg bent rim was replaced.this is not a complaint revolving around the cost. I have a tire and wheel warranty that covers me for the cost of these blowouts. This is a major safety issue. …”
