Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“After getting off the freeway and driving on surface streets, I had a complete tire blow out. When pulled over the resulting tire was torn to shreds. The tire was purchased a little over 3 years ago with about 25,000 miles on it. The tires were recently maintained (rotated and aligned). There was a good amount of tread still remaining on tire. Fortunately, I was able to pull over into a parking lot and call for road assistance. However, because of the complete disintegration of the tire, my rim was totally damaged. …”
