4 of the original tires have had tread separation over the last 2 years. I still have three of the tires, the fourth was kept by a Ford dealer who helped me out after the first failure. We have been lucky since we found the problems before blowouts happened. (dot number: M3pa998X tiresize: 205/65R15)
