DUNLOP SIGNATURE II TIRES Complaints

The contact owns a 2020 Jeep Renegade equipped with Dunlop Tires, Tire Line: Signature 2, Tire Size: 23/60/R17, DOT Number: N6KTJR1R. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, there was a flapping sound coming from the rear driver’s side of the vehicle. The contact was able to get home safely however, after inspecting the tires, the contact became aware of tread separation on the driver’s and passenger’s side rear tires. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that the tire manufacturer would be contacted and notified of the failure. The tires were also taken to a tire shop and the contact was informed that the tires were defective. The tires were not replaced. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 25,000.

4 months after my first incident with my front 2 tires, here i am again dealing with the exact same issue with the 2 rear tires. What angers me even more about this instance is that the mechanic who replaced my front 2 tires looked in January when they replaced and said that my rear 2 seemed to be ok an unaffected by whatever was going on and maybe it was just a fluke. Something needs to be done or this issue is going to cause an accident. I was lucky that someone saw the exposed belts with mine and let me know otherwise I could have possibly had a blowout and had no idea.

Owned my vehicle a little over 2 years and when walking past my car one day noticed a shimmery glare on my driver side from tire. Upon further inspection realized that the shimmer was coming from the belts that were already making an appearance. Immediately took my car to a service provider who tried to get me to spend over $300 to get a possible $75 warranty credit. I walked out and just ordered 2 tires from another manufacturer. When my mechanic put my new tires on said he found ZERO reason that these tires should be doing what they are. i have never had such a horribly manufactured tire in all my years of owning cars. Complete junk and going to cause an accident if someone doesn't do something about it. 215/60R17 is my size

I bought this car in 2018, I drive 4 miles per day more or less , I have only 25,486 miles and today during a regular inspection I found that my tires tread are on yellow 6/32", just the front (where I have Front Wheel Drive). Not sure how driving only in town can quickly wear a tire, by the time I pay off this car I will be with an expensive bill for change the tires. I had an used Subaru for 5 years and I never had to change the tires during 5 years, and I drove way more than Toyota, had 89,000 when the gaskets blew off. Not sure why car/tires companies make crap products to make us pay often.
