Purchased 4 new General Grabber hts tires size 25/75R15 less than 4 months ago. Tires were installed at a reputable dealership. I now have 2,600 miles on the tires. Last week the first tire blew out at the bead, where the tire meets the rim. I installed my full size spare while the first failure is investigated. Now two days later, a second tire is severely deformed at the tire bead and looks like it is about to explode just like the first one. Both failures are right under the 'ge' in general at the tire bead. I believe these tires are completely defective, they are a danger to anyone that has them installed on their vehicle and a danger to the public. The first tire failed while driving at 55mph on a flat, straight, smooth road. The second tire has not completely failed, but there is a large bulge or bubble in the tire where it meets the rim, it looks like it could fail at any moment and is not safe to drive. First photo of first failed tire immediately after it failed on the side of road. Second and third photo is the second tire I believe is about to explode. Last photo dot number of first failed tire. Thank you for your time.

Vehicle rolls-not slides out of driveway while vehicle in park and not running while on snow and ice does not do so when in 4 wheel drive. Nissan dealer has seen videos but says nothing wrong. Lived in house since 1985 and no car has ever rolled out. Only under certain winter conditions does this happen such as wet packed snow.. was nearly ran over one day getting mail. Video show no key, in park and all 4 tires rotating forward. Second video shows no key, in park 3 wheels rotating forward and 1 rear wheel rotating backward as pickup rolls forward. One dealer could see problem and told me to put blocks behind wheels. Second complaint. Rear bumper has significant rust around license plate, rest of bumper ok. Nissan says because of winter chemicals. Brought this to their attention 4 years ago when pickup had 7835 miles. In 4 years I have attempted to find another pickup approximate same age any make with rust from chemicals. I have the only one in (redacted). Why rust behind license plate which is protected from chemical. The past 4 years I ave made a minimum of 15 trips, calls, letters all to be told nothing wrong, nothing we can do. Feel as though the big company is bullying the little person. Can send photos, video correspondence separately-not computer savvy. First incident at dealer was 2/27/2018. Might add this is a great pickup, which I can never sell in good faith knowing the dangerous condition on snow and ice.

While changing the passenger side rear tire of the 2013 Nissan Frontier, one of the wheel lug studs was found to be loose and went half way in. I tried to pull the wheel lug stud with my finger and it won?T come out. I tightened the other four nuts on the wheel lug studs and started to drive to the dealer. While driving on the parkway close to the resting area, I felt like my rear passenger side wheel locked up, I stopped the vehicle and I looked at the rear wheel lug stud that felt like it was stuck halfway in the wheel. One of the two truck drivers asked what the problem was. I told them that I am having a problem with the rear passenger side wheel lug stud because the wheel lug stud seemed to be caught in the brakes. Tow truck driver took a very small screw driver and pushed the wheel lug stud further in and asked if I could move my truck. The wheel got free after he pushed the wheel lug stud further. I was able to move the vehicle in to the parking lot. I called one of my friend, a retired auto mechanic. He came over and opened the wheel and took out the wheel lug stud and the vehicle was drivable. I asked him to take the vehicle to the dealer. This retired mechanic told me that usually these wheel lug stud are supposed to be sealed and shouldn't be loose and wobbly. This could have been very life threatening if this had happened while driving 65 mph on the parkway.
