PURCHASED 2 TIRES 5-27-00. ABOUT 1 MONTH LATER THE TREAD CAME OFF OF THE LEFT FRONT. ON 8-17-00 SECOND TIRE BLEW OUT THE SIDEWALL WHEN IT HIT A 4 INCH POTHOLE. TIRE WAS WORN ABOUT 20% AFTER 4800 MILES DRIVEN ON IT. STORE WHERE THEY WERE PURCHASED, REPLACED BOTH TIRES. JUST WANTED TO SEND INFO TO BE LOOKED INTO.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 70SR 15WW )

I RECENTLY PURCHASED THE 70,000 MILE WARRANTY TIRES DESCRIBED. WITHIN A COUPLE OF WEEKS ONE OF THE TIRES SPLIT APART ON THE SIDE WHILE I WAS TRAVELING APPROX. 30 MPH. IT WAS RULED DEFECTIVE AND REPLACED. ON 7/28, WHILE GOING 70 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE A SECOND TIRE SPLIT APART RESULTING IN A WRECK WITH INJURIES. THE TIRE PLACE WHERE I PURCHASED THE TIRES SAID IT FAILED AND SPLIT APART AFTER THEY EXAMINED WHAT WAS LEFT OF THE TIRE. A WEEK LATER I HEARD ABOUT THE FIRESTONE PROBLEMS AND I WAS WONDERING WHETHER OR NOT BF GOODRICH HAD HAD REPORTED PROBLEMS WITH THESE TIRES AS I HAVE HAD TWO COME APART? ANYWAY, I WANTED TO REPORT THIS TO YOU BECAUSE IF IT IS A PROBLEM I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANYONE KILLED OR INJURED ANY MORE SERIOUSLY THAN MY SON AND I WERE.( DOT NUMBER: URTU11 TIRE SIZE: P205/65R15 )
