CONSUMER PURCHASED A SET OF TIRES 3 YEARS AGO FOR HIS TOYOTA TRUCK, AND NOW AFTER 35,000 MILES HE IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THEM SEPARATING . THESE TIRES ARE NOT ON RECALL SO THE MANUFACTURER WILL NOT HELP HIM. WHILE DRIVING FELT AS THOUGH HE WAS GETTING A FLAT TIRE, HE WENT TO THE DEALER AND AFTER EXAMINATION OF THE TIRES HE FOUND OUT THAT THE TIRES HAD SEPARATED FROM THE BELTS INSIDE. FIRESTONE,WILDERNESS 30X950 R 15 LP WHICH WAS SUPPOSE TO GO FROM 50-60,000 MILES. THESE TIRES DID NOT COME ON THE VEHICLE, BUT WERE PURCHASED LATER.*AK

I HAVE NOT HAD A FAILURE YET, BUT THE CRACKS THAT ARE SHOWING UP ON ALL FOUR OF MY TIRES, DOWN AT THE BASE OF TREAD LUGS, IS VERY WORRY SOME. THE CRACKS HAVE BECOME MORE PRONOUCED OVER THE LAST 3 MONTHES. WHEN I TOOK THEM TO A FIRESTONE DEALER, THEY SAID THAT THIS MODEL WAS NOT UNDER RECALL, AND THE COULD PRO RATE A NEW SET FOR ME. IF IT HAD BEEN ONE TIRE I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT IT A FLUKE, ANY MANUFACTURER HAS. ALL FOUR TIRES DEVELOPING THE SAME PROBLEM SOUNDS MORE LIKE A REAL PROBLEM. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME. DANIEL CARHART. *AK (DOT NUMBER: W29V AWI TIRESIZE: P265/75R15)

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.
