“After scraping a curb and tearing the sidewall of one of the 195/60hr-15 bridgestone potenza re960as pole position tires on my 2000 Volvo S70, I replaced it with the same tire. Seven months and only a few thousand miles later, the replacement tire developed a bulge in the sidewall. Since purchasing the set in march of 2008, this is the third tire I've had to replace due to a sidewall problem. I genuinely believe this to be due to a defect in the sidewall of the tire. I've retained the most recently replaced tire in case the NHTSA desires to inspect it.”
NHTSA complaint #10333905, filed 2010-05, 185,300 miles“On 8/22//2015 was driving on highway in texas when noticed front left tire didn't feel right. After a few minutes the left front tire blew, but was able to pull over. Looks like the tread came away from the tire with sidewall cracking too. No car damage, nobody hurt. Called a local tire service which came and replaced tire to enable trip completion. Michelin primacy mxv4 DOT# apda 3vxx 2612 size p195/60r15 tires were new on 12 31/2013”
