BRIDGESTONE TIRES Complaints

I bought a pair of Bridgestone Weatherpeak tires 006055 Weatherpeak BL215/55R16 93H 70,000 Mile Limited warranty tires from Firestone Complete Autocare in Medina OH Store # 755785 located at 5131 Buehlers Drive Medina OH 44256. The shop manager Alvin told me that these tires were not recalled for safety but that they have abnormal wear. This truly needs looked into because I had to buy an entire new set of tires early due to these tires wearing out early. I came in under the 70,000 mile warranty.

My tires were Black when I bought them at Wittlins in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin in 2020. They have been continualy turning brown on the outside of tire. Now they are a beige color on the outside of tire. It seems the tires are aging terribly. I complained to Wittlins a few times about tires discoloration and the manager keeps telling me the tires are wearing fine and said discoloration is normal. Maybe a little discoloration but not like this and I do not even live in a warm climate. 235/50R18/SL (Tires)

So I've had to have 1 tire replaced already working on number 2. First one not sure what the problem was, but this tire is having problems holding air. It'll hold air for about 9 hours then the gauge on inside of car comes in saying low tire pressure.

235/50/R20. Found driver side rear tire completely flat in personal garage yesterday morning and passenger front tire had low psi warning on as well. Used the fix-a-flat kit that came with my car to fill driver rear and able to get to shop. Car/tires have 5000 miles on them. Tire shop could not find anything wrong with the driver rear tire but stated a puncture was found in passenger front tire well and did patch that. I see this has been reported before on a Toyota Bz4x same year and same tire with mileage the same as well. I am concerned this could be an issue going forward and am scared to drive this car now any distance especially since there is no spare and I have to purchase a replacement cylinder for the fix-flat.

235/55R19 Both front tires are showing abnormal rubber chunking or flaking off on the inner and outer tread. To avoid a possible failure or blow out, I replaced the tires with another brand and model. Bridgestone will not honor their warranty on these tires and I feel they are at fault. Online reports of blow-outs are fairly common with these tires.

225 55/R19. New 2024 Toyota Venza (purchased XXX) with under 4k miles when tire blew out. Was driving the speed of traffic eastbound on [XXX] near [XXX] merge just east of Des Moines in heavy, heavy semi traffic when tire went flat. I had been driving for several hours since my previous stop and was in the far left lane when noise a loss of control made me pull off the road. I have pictures & a video that appears to show a tire defect. Neither Toyota and Bridgestone paid for my replacement tire, nor admit to a defective tire. I am concerned my other factory installed tires are also defective, and neither company are interested in my pics/video. Since I already purchased a replacement tire, they have no interest in my concerns. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
