WE WERE TOWING OUR 2010 HEARTLAND EAGLE RIDGE 5TH WHEEL TRAILER. WE WERE TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH WHEN THE TREAD OF THE POWER KING TOW MAX STR ST 235/80R/16 DOT #83B5 GPB COMPLETELY PEELED AWAY FROM THE TIRE. THIS CAUSED SIGNIFICATE DAMAGE TO THE FENDER AND SLIDE RESULTING IN $3100 IN DAMAGE. WE WERE ON A ROAD WITH NO SHOULDER SO HAD TO CONTINUE ON TO THE NEXT TOWN APPROXIMATELY 5 MILES AWAY WHERE WE WERE ABLE TO CHANGE THE TIRE. THE TIRE PRESSURE WAS AT THE RECOMMENDED PRESSURE OF 80 PSI. ON AUGUST 14, 2015, ABOUT 15 MILES FROM OUR HOME THE TREAD FROM THE TIRE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CAMPER SEPERATED. THE TREAD WAS WEDGED IN THE AXEL. THERE WAS DAMAGE TO THE FENDER, WIRING HARNESS AND PROPANE LINE. THIS DAMAGE AMOUNTED TO $1500. NEEDLESS TO SAY ALL THE TIRES WILL BE REPLACED NOW BUT NOT WITH THIS BRAND OF TIRE.

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.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
