WHEN INSPECTING MY TIRES AT 19000 MILES, I DISCOVERED CRACKING ALONG THE INNER SIDEWALL FOR ONE MY FOUR TIRES. THIS IS THE ONLY TIRE SHOWING ANY CRACKING. *TR I TOOK THE TIRE FOR REVIEW TO THE TIRE DEALER, AND THEIR EXPERT INDICATED THIS WAS INDEED A DEFECTIVE TIRE, THAT THE CRACKING WAS NOT YET DETRIMENTAL TO THE TIRE, BUT THAT IS SHOULD BE REPLACED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

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.
