My front tires, (from a set of four), have parts of the tread separating from the tire body. The rubber under the missing pieces of tread has a texture like popcorn. The inner surface of the rubber is shiny and smooth. It is not from gouging, force, or abuse to the tires. It is as if the manufacturing process used two different batches of rubber that was not incorporated together correctly, and is now separating from itself. This is clearly a manufacturing defect and should be recalled immediately! if a tire failure occurs from this defect at speed, it could cause a serious accident, rollover, head-on, serious injury/death. Please review his matter as soon as possible. Please contact me for pictures of the defect, since the website has no way to upload the pics.

Front tires cause car to vibrate above 60 mph; sometimes enough to cause me to deccelerate; vibration problem started last year; tires continually go out of balance; Firestone dealer says they can't see anything wrong with them; Goodyear dealer said the tires wobble on their balancing machine and should be replaced; Firestone says they can't do anything for me and say there must be something wrong with the vehicle.
