P275 / 65r 18 The passenger front tire had a side wall blow out that just about took me off the road. Luckily I regained control of my truck before getting in an accident. The service center closest to where I was located somehow patched the sidewalk which I don't think they are legally supposed to do. In addition, these tires have very little tread left after only 30,000 miles. I'm extremely disappointed with the fact that I have to buy new tires already and the fact that without any explanation from the service center about the possible cause of the sidewall blow out, they were reluctant to speculate.
Tires had 1500 miles on it; Front right tire low pressure warning came on; Reading 19 PSI; Inflated tire back to proper PSI; Less then 24 hrs later, PSI was reading 24; Took tire off and sprayed down with soap water; approx. 5 pin size holes were causing the soapy water to bubble. Asked mechanic to put spare on back right tire and relocate back right tire to front right tire. He also sprayed down the back right tire while it was off the truck and again, approx 3 pin size holes were visible with soapy water; Brought vehicle back to dealer; They replaced what was the original front right tire, but would not replace any other tire since they found no issue since it was holding the PSI; Would not test the other two tires on the left side because again they were holding the pressure. Was told if problems comes back, need to address with Bridgestone/Firestone. These tires are 275/55/R20
