“I purchased 4 continental touring ties in the spring of 2002. The tires were purchased in sets of 2, one month apart. Three of the tires failed through tread separation. I replaced the fourth tire without waiting for the tread to separate on it.”

NHTSA complaint #10108257, filed 2005-01, 128,075 miles

“- the contact purchased 2 futura 2000 radial lte tires in 2005 and 1 in 2006 from pepboys. The tires had a lifetime warranty on rotation and balancing. All 3 tires shredded within a six month period of time. The contact went back to pepboys and purchased new tires and they kept the old tires. The contact has since received a safety recall and know longer has the old tires because pepboys kept them and they had the DOT number which the contact needs to be reimbursed.”
