This is a 2009 pleasure way excel ts motor home, built by pleasure way industries in Canada. This motor home came with hankook, dynapro as tires, so far I have had 3 of these tires blow up on me traveling at about 60 mph, and 2 more bubbling up on the side and inside, but they did not blow since I noticed it and install the spare, one of this last two the bubbling was found when I replaced all four tires with new Michelin. The 1st 3 tires were replaced on a prorated order, I having to pay for balancing and mounting. The first 3 tires were replaced with dynapro ht tires which 2 of them failed the same way. (the side wall bubbles inside and out until it blows up. The last two tires have not been approved for replacement by hankook because they want to visually inspect them so the tires are having to be sent to them by the sears auto center in coral gables, Florida. In the mean time I have installed Michelin tires, do not trust hankook what so ever. I have photos, invoices, mileage when all these tires failed, which depending on the outcome of this complain I can send them to you since you a limit to upload these items. I believe there is a safety problems with these tire as to be overrated or something, even though one of the tires was on the front on the vehicle, and not subject to weight or pressure since it had 55 lbs of air pressure and they are rated to 80 lbs. In my safety concern had any on this tires would of have blown on the front, I would probably not be writing this complain, and god only knows what else could of happened. All these tires have failed from 05/23/2012 to 04/19/2016 and mileage from 9690 to 17323 miles. Pictured included are only for the 09/16/2015 incident only, I have others if needed including invoices.

There is a loud "popping" noise when the braking of the van comes to a complete stop. Sometimes I am afraid the van is not going to stop all the way. From what I am reading online, it may be under previous recall for the brake system. I have no idea how to go about getting recall information, etc. To have a Ford dealership fix this problem.
