While driving home from work at highway speeds in less than 1 minute I went from Total normal Driving Experience to feeling like I had a vibration likely a flat. Luckily it was the back tire so I was able to safely steer off the highway. Upon inspecting the tire it was completely gone! Only minimal sidewall attached to the rim on both inside and outside of the wheel. The sidewall failed approximately 1 in Above the Rim lip. All the way around on both sides. This is on a general gmax as-05 215/50/ ZR 17 purchased in 2021 from tirerack.com. these tires are used seasonally in addition to winter tires so they have minimal miles for being a little over 2 years old. I also recently had the car New York State inspected in the last 30 days. upon reaching out to Tire Rack I learned there was a substantial recall of almost 100,000 continental and general brand tires that were " over cured". This tire is not on the list but did exactly what the description of the recalled tires had done. I do not feel safe traveling on the remaining tires and I feel other people could be in danger of this happening to this model Tire. I just want to keep myself and other safe and feel like I'm going to get stonewalled with a retailer on warranty. Also want to keep others from potential harm as this had happened on my front wheel in the middle of rush hour traffic it could have been disastrous and deadly! Up until this I loved these tires they were sporty, great handling, quiet and wearing very evenly and seem to be long-lasting so far. I hope Continental/general does the right thing by adding this tire to the recall list. Also this car was recently New York State inspected less than 30 days ago there is ample tread and the tires have been diligently rotated and they are only on the car for 7 months at a time as I have a set of General winter tires that I switch between seasonally.

On Feb. 5, 2011 I purchased 4 tires from dobbs Honda on covington pike, memphis, Tennessee. On June 7, one of the tires went flat. I was told that the bead was broken on the tire. I returned the tire to dobbs which promised a refund for the tire, have not received. On August 2, 2011 I received another flat on a tire. I was told the cause of the flat was a broken bead, I again spoke with dobbs representative who stated that someone would call me. The first tire had about 3500 miles on it and the second tire had 4400 miles on it. I complained that I was afraid that the other two tires might also have a defect and wanted the tires replaced. I was told that the service manager would contact me. Dobbs is claiming that it has been almost six months from purchase disregarding the low mileage on the new tires. The service manager after my constant concern regarding the tire safety check the tires saying that the pressure was high and blaming the extreme heat for the problem. When I stated that this does not explain the first tire problem stated that the service manager will call you after five today or tomorrow.

On July 17th, 2010, I had 4 brand new falken zeix ze 912 installed on my car. Approximately 5 miles from the dealership, while driving on the freeway, the front right tire blew out. See ODI number 10344123) today, August 14th, 2010, while driving down the freeway, the left front tire blew out. I had the spare tire put onto the car and drove to the dick hanna Acura of portland, Oregon; the dealership that installed the new tires on July 17th. The dealership reported that they could tell from observation that the car ran over a pot hole which caused the blow out. I explained that I was on the freeway and there were no pot holes. I also stated that it seems bizarre that a tire would not be able to hold up even if there were pot holes on the freeway. I reminded them that it was only one month ago that the right front tire blew out. At this point, the tire will obviously have to be replaced. The dealership did not have the appropriate tire in stock thus still has by car until at least Monday. This appears to be a huge red flag with these tires. I requested that the dealership review the tires and give me a written confirmation that all the tires are safe prior to me picking up my car.
