PURCHASE 4 CONTINENTAL EXTREME CONTACT TIRES (PK15-46-1960: 205/55R-16) ON 1/12/2015 . ON SATURDAY 8/6/2016 AROUND 5 PM THE 2 TIRES ON THE PASSENGER BLEW OUT AT THE SIDE WALL AT THE SAME TIME. LUCKY MY DAUGHTER WAS JUST PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT (WITNESS SAY SHE DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING). NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON INDICATING A PROBLEM. HAD TO GO TO FIRESTONE FOR REPLACEMENT TIRES. REPLACED THE ONES ON DRIVER SIDE FOR I DIDN'T TRUST THEM. FILE A WARRANTY ISSUE AND EVEN CALL CONTINENTAL THEY TO BAD ABOUT THE OTHER 2 TIRES. I BELIEVE THESE TIRES HAVE A DEFECT FOR THEY HAVE PLENTY OF LIFE LEFT ON THEM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 MAZDA CX-7. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V356000 (AIR BAGS) WAS RECEIVED IN JUNE OF 2016.

TAKATA RECALL: GOT LETTER STATING NO ONE SHOULD RIDE IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL REPAIR DONE. YET REPAIR MAY NOT BE DONE FOR 10-15 YEARS!!!!!!! I CALLED RUSSELL MAZDA IN CATONSVILLE, MD & THEY CONCURRED. THIS IS RIDICULOUS: I HAVE FIVE PEOPLE NEEDING TO BE IN THE CAR: HOW CAN WE NOT USE THE FRONT SEAT FOR 10-15 YEARS?

AN INTERIOR PANEL (CONSOLE COVER) ADJACENT TO GAS PEDAL HAS COME OFF WHILE THE CAR WAS ON THE ROAD, ONCE TO MY WIFE AND ONCE TO ME. IT INTERFERED WITH THE DRIVER'S ABILITY TO LIFT THE FOOT OFF OF THE GAS PEDAL. I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER THAT IT APPEARS THAT THE PANEL WAS DESIGNED TO HAVE 3 SPRING CLIPS TO RETAIN IT, BUT THE PANEL ONLY HAD ONE. (MY MAZDA CX5 HAS SEVERAL CLIPS ON A SIMILAR PART). THE DEALER SIMPLY SNAPPED IT BACK IN PLACE AFTER THE FIRST OCCURRENCE. AFTER THE SECOND OCCURRENCE I SUGGESTED THAT IT WAS MISSING A RETAINING CLIP. THE DEALER ORDERED AND INSTALLED A NEW PANEL. IT CAME OFF WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY, ONCE AGAIN INTERFERING WITH MY ABILITY TO LIFT MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. I OBSERVED THAT THE NEW PANEL HAS ONLY ONE RETAINING CLIP, JUST LIKE THE ORIGINAL. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW POSING A SIGNIFICANT HAZARD, ESPECIALLY TO AN INEXPERIENCED DRIVER.

SUBFRAME RUSTED STRIGHT THRU ON THE RIGHT SUPPORT POINT. LEFT SUPPORT POINT HAD NO RUST AT ALL.. APPROX 96000 MILES ON THE CAR, AND THIS RUST WAS FOUND BY MY MECHANIC AFTER REPLACING THE NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH..THE RUST IS HARD TO DETECT BECAUSE THE PLASTIC COVERS , THAT COVER THE SUBFRAME.
