The contact owns a 2015 Toyota Corolla equipped with Nika Supercharger tires, Tire Size: 215/45/R17, DOT Number: 16MTSB3 and manufactured on 4/5/2020. The contact stated while driving approximately 60 mph the front driver's side tire had experienced rapid air pressure loss. After stopping to inspect the vehicle it was discovered that the inner sidewall of the tire had separated from the tread of the tire. Upon inspection, it was then discovered that the same failure had occurred on three of the four-tire. The cause of the failures was not determined. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 13,000.

I had a NIKA Supercharger tire on drivers front inside tread/ sidewall separation I checked the front passenger and rear passenger tires, and they are also separating the same way and in the same place. The tires are barely two years old and were not worn out. Something is wrong with these tires. I was lucky I had not got on the interstate yet when the tire failed. Tire size 215/45/R17-91W XL These tires are not Toyota supplied tires and were on the car at time of purchase. They are the proper size for the car however.

We had four brand new Goodyear Assurance All-Season tires installed by our regular mechanics (Harper's Farm BP, Columbia, Maryland) on August 23, 2021. The very next day our son was driving on I-83 near Harrisburg, PA en route to Ithaca, NY when the rear driver's-side tire completely failed. The tread separated from the sidewalls and was left on the highway somewhere. (See uploaded photos.) Fortunately, he kept control of the car, but there was something wrong with this tire. I do not expect a one-day old tire to fail so completely in this way. Maybe he hit a nail on the highway and lost some air pressure, but I would expect him to have a flat tire, not an exploded tire. We had the tire replaced at Derry Auto & Tire in Harrisburg, PA the next day. I have attached receipts from both repair shops to document the dates.
