On 02/01/06 I purchased 4 tires for my truck from Firestone and today I took it to the Firestone dealer as I have a radial pull in one of the tires. They told me that the tires on my truck were 8,9 and 10 years old and that they could not fix my problem. The dot # on my receipt is 7xw8pib5500 which is not correct and with the 00 on the end the tires were over 6 years old when sold to me. I called there main office and they told me they would do an adjustment against the age of my tire and mileage and I would have to pay the rest which comes to over $565 dollars. In my old purchase I have lifetime wheel balance, lifetime wheel balance for labor and rubber valve, plus protect tire repair and replacement. I also have tire dry rot along with the radial pull and feel that the tires I got were well over the 5 years and I expect to get four new tires with the same warranty because that is what I paid for in the first place. They sold me tires first of all that were to old and they did not have the correct dot number. With the way the one front tire that has a radial pull keeps pulling to the left it could cause an accident and with the tire rot they could blow out at any time and cause an accident also.

Tire failure after 15,000 miles. Strong radial pull from right to left at highway speed. On further inspection all four tires had complete tread separation on outside tread channel covering the circumference of the tires. Some tread separation has started on the far inside channel of the four tires. Unusual amount of ware has occurred on the outside shoulder of all four tires. Cracking was noted on tread lugs. Replaced all four tires under warranty.
