CONTINENTAL GRABBER AW TIRES Complaints

ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT TREAD SEAPARATED ON GENERAL TIRE: MODEL #GRABBER AW. P25570R16/ DOT A3CU44E418, DAMAGING THE FRONT FENDER AND AXLE. COMPANY HAS BEEN CALLING MANY TIME AND REPRESENTATIVES DOESN'T WANT TO TAKE RESPONSABILITIES. TS

BOTH MANUFACTURES ARE POINTING FINGER AT EACH OTHER WITH NEITHER CLAIMING WHY THE CORRECTIVE ACTION FOR REPLACING THE GRABBER AWS' WERE WITH A NARROWER SERIES. THE OWNER STATES THAT THE TRUCK DOESN'T HANDLE THE SAME AND WOULD LIKE THE TIRE SIZE THAT CAME ON THE TRUCK WHEN PURCHASE. PLEASE DESCRIBE DETAILS

ARMSTRONG FORD, HOMESTEAD, FL, SERVICE MGR, FRED OLIVERA SAYS THAT CONTINENTAL WILL NOT PAY FOR DAMMAGE TO VEHICLE.*AK

WE FOLLOWED THE MANUFACTUERS CERTIFICATION LABEL INSIDE THE DRIVERS DOOR FOR THE CORRECT PSI FOR ALL 4 TIRES. THE CERTIFICATION LABEL INDICATED 26PSI FRONT AND 30PSI REAR. WE TESTED THE TIRES ON A MONTLY BASIS AND KEPT THE TIRE PRESSURE AS INDICATED. WHEN I WENT IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE I WANTED THEM TO CHECK THE TIRES BECAUSE THEY WHERE STARTING TO WEAR ON THE EDGES. I WAS ADVISED BY TIRESPLUS THAT ALL 4 TIRES NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE STEEL BELT WAS COMING THROUGH THE TREAD. THESE TIRES ONLY HAD 20K MILES ON THEM FOR A 2 YEAR OLD VEHICHLE. WHICH 20K IS UNDER THE NATIONAL AVERAGE FOR MILEAGE ON A VEHICLE. I'M SO LUCKY THAT THESE TIRES DIDN'T BLOW OUT DUE TO THE STEEL BELTS COMING THROUGH WHILE I WAS DRIVING THEM. I CONTACTED THE CAR DEALERSHIP ON A FEW OCCASIONS AND THEY NEVER RESPONDED TO ME. THANK YOU
