Tire blew out (disintegrated) on freeway.( dot number: ? tire size: P235/70R15 )
- Pioneertown, CA, USA
The dealer knew my tires were chopping badly as written in the work order and only having 4837 miles did nothing. Currently I have 12,478 miles on the truck but cannot drive over 50 miles per hour. The truck vibrates severly. They say they are not in the tire business but offered to prorate and sell me new tires.they waited till my tires were out of warranty. I feel they were working with Firestone tire.Firestone tire also refused to do anything.I have to drive my truck and I cannot afford to buy new tires and I should not have too.it is very dangerous driving my truck like this but I have no choice, I have to drive it.the tires are severly chopping, small and large tread defects / gouges thruout. Tread areas are lifting up.they say to keep rotating the tires and it will wear them down. I have done that and it get's worse.now what?? thank you., ( dot number: Tire size: P22570R14 )

One tire went flat while driving, 3 other tires went flat while parked, a tiny gravel was found in each one and the dealer stated that the walls of the tires were very soft, the tires weer not replaced for free.
