2021 FOREST RIVER FORESTER Complaints

I purchased and paid for two NEW front tires for my RV from Mac’s Tire & Complete Auto in Tucson, Arizona. After the tires were installed, I drove the RV approximately 2,000 miles. During this trip, the front tires began deteriorating and coming apart on the inside. Because the damage was on the inner side of the tires, it was difficult to see during normal visual inspection. I stopped at a Firestone location in Casa Grande, Arizona, where the tires were inspected. I was informed that the two front tires that had been installed and sold to me as new were actually approximately 13 and 14 years old based on their DOT manufacturing date codes. I had driven approximately 2,000 miles at highway speeds with my family in the RV without knowing that these extremely old tires were installed on the front steering axle. The condition of the tires created a serious risk of a blowout, loss of steering control, crash, serious injury, or death. I am reporting this incident because I believe these tires presented a serious highway safety hazard. GOOD YEAR WRANGLER HT Load range E DOT 2413 and DOT 2912
