I REPLACED MY ORIGINAL TRAILER TIRES AFTER 10 YEARS OF USE. I BOUGHT TOW MASTER TIRES, ST 215-75R-14 LOAD RANGE C MANUFACTURED DATE 1312 DOT 53JD SPH. THEY WERE INTALLED ON A EZ LOAD SINGLE AXLE TRAILER. ON 7/23/16 TRAVELING ON I 81 SOUTH AT 65 MPH ONE OF MY TRAILER TIRES EXPLODED. THERE ISN'T MUCH LEFT, BREAD IS GONE AND SIDEWALL ARE CRACKED TO THE BEAD. TEMP WAS ABOUT 80* AND TIRES WERE INFLATED TO 48 PSI COLD TEMP. THESE TIRES HAVE VERY LOW MILAGE ON THEM, AROUND 3000 MILES AND ARE GARAGE KEPT ON TRAILER. I EVEN USE WHEEL COVERS WHEN IN THE SUN. THIS TIRE EXPLODED IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, THANK GOD NOBODY CRASHED AND I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SHOULDER SAFELY. TRAVELING STRAIGHT AT HIGHWAY SPEED 65 MPH.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
