WHILE DRIVING MY MOTORHOME AT 65 MPH I HAD A LEFT INNER TIRE BLOWN, THAT SAME DAY I HAD A LEFT OUTER TIRE BLOWN, AND THE FOLLOWING DAY I HAD A RIGHT FRONT TIRE BLOWN WHILE DRIVING DOWNHILL.ONLY GODS HANDS KEPT ME FROM WIPING OUT SEVERAL CARS BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE COACH. THESE WERE ALL BRAND NEW XRV 255 80R 22.R. MICHELN CUSTOMER SERVICE INFORMED ME IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE THAT THEY HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS TIRE, I WAS TOLD I HAD A COACH THAT WAS VERY OVER WEIGHT AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO. ON A CERTIFIED SCALE THE COACH WAS ALMOST TWO THOUSAND LBS UNDERWEIGHT. THE REAR AXLE WAS FOUR THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY LBS UNDERWEIGHT. I HAD THIS VERY SAME PROBLEM WITH THE PRIOR TIRES ON THIS COACH, THREE OF THEM BLEW IN THE EXACT SAME MANER, ALL HAD WELL OVER HALF THE TREAD LIFE LEFT. THE ONLY REASON THESE TIRES WERE REPLACED WITH MORE MICHELN TIRES IS THAT MICHELN TIRES ARE THE ONLY MAKERS OF THIS SIZE TIRE. WORRIED FOR MY LIFE AND OTHERS I HAD THE STEERING TIRES REPLACED WITH ANOTHER BRAND WITH A DIFFERENT SIZE. I WAS TOLD BY BOTH SERVICE MEN WHO CAME OUT THAT THEY SEE THE SIDEWALL BLOWOUTS ON MICHELN TIRES ALL THE TIME, WHERE I BOUGHT THE NEW STEERING TIRES THE SHOP MANAGER TOLD ME NO MATTER WHAT I WOULD NEVER GET A WARRANTY FROM MICHELN. THEY ALWAYS HAVE A REASON.I CALLED THE ALLEGRO RV COMPANY TO INQUIRE ABOUT THE WEIGHT OF MY CAMPER AND WAS TOLD BY THE PARTS MANAGER THAT THEY SEE THE MICHELN RV TIRES BLOW RIGHT BELOW THE TREAD ON THE SIDEWALL.

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.
