S-10 Pickup 6-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 183,000 miles
My daugther and I were driving to see her grandmother and I noticed the front end of my truck riding rough. When we arrived at her grandmothers I looked at my left front tire and noticed a bulge on the sidewall that was approximately 12 inches long and the width of the sidewall. If this tire were to blow out this may have caused serious injury to my daugther, myself and my truck. These were kumho 711 ectsa. It looks to be that the rubber on the sidewall seperated. I have less than ten thousand miles on these tires. This is obviously a manufacturing defect and is a serious safety issue. These tires have not been on the market but for approximately a year.
