This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
As we traveled from Indiana to Wisconsin we experienced two separate tire blow outs. The first was on I 65 in Indiana the second was on I 90 in Wisconsin. We were traveling at 70 mph the posted speed limit at both occasions.
I just had the tread on my LT235 80R17 completely let go of the tire. Just a big circle nof tread. I was driving down us 60 leaving phoenix, AZ. Heading towards superior, AZ. As I approached gonzolus pass. Which by the way is a heck of a deep canyon.
Purchased (4) B.F. goodrich all-terrain T/a truck tires (LT305/65R17) in August, 2007. Took a trip to las vegas, and noted sidewall cracking adjacent to bead on all 4 tires. When tires were purchased, one would not balance and I had to come back to pick up a replacement. The sidewall cracking on this tire is not as severe as the other 3. B.F.goodrich/Michelin is giving me baloney about the tires not being driven enough and that "ozone-weathering" could be responsible! I have never had this sort of problem before and I maintain that the tires were defective from day one. Their warranty is laughable, and their take on safety appears to be a joke.
