2000 SHASTA CHEYENNE Complaints

WE HAVE A 2000 SHASTA CHEYENNE CLASS C MOTORHOME WHICH CAME WITH FIRESTONE TIRES LT225/75R16. LAST YEAR WE HAD THREE BLOWOUTS, ONE WHICH COST OVER $3,100 TO REPAIR DAMAGE CAUSED. WE ONLY HAVE 18,000 MILES ON THE MOTORHOME AND THE TIRES AREN'T SUN DAMAGED. WE HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIND OUT IF THESE TIRES WERE RECALLED. ALSO, WE HAVE A SAMSUNG MICROWAVE MR5492W. DID NOT GET A LETTER AND THE LOCAL REPAIR PLACE WON'T FIX IT WITHOUT A LETTER FROM SAMSUNG. EMAILED SAMSUNG WITH NO RESPONSE SO FAR. WHAT DO WE DO?

CONSUMER STATES THAT WHILE DRIVING TIRE "BLEW APART" AROUND THE EDGES. CHECKED BY DLR WHO ADVISED THAT ALL TIRES WERE DEFECTIVE. CONSUMER STATES TIRES HAVE CRACKS AROUND SIDEWALL.

I OWN AN RV WITH DUEL REAR WHEEL'S. IN THIS CASE, IT IS ON A FORD CHASSIS. TO CHECK OR ADD AIR TO THE TIRES, WE ARE REQUIRED TO INSTALL EXTENDERS. MYSELF LIKE THOUSANDS OF OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME PROBLEM. THE VALVE STEM EVENTUALLY BREAKS, CAUSING IMMEDIATE AIR LOSS, CAUSING TIRE FAILURE, UNLESS EXTREEMLY CARFUL COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE UNBENOUNCED, THIS TIME IT WAS THE INNER DUEL AND NOT IMMEDIATELY NOTICED. A TRUCKER NOTICED IT AND WAVED ME OVER. THE TIRE WAS TOTALY DESTROYED AND SLAPPING AGAINST THE GOOD TIRE WITH IT'S STEEL WIRES. I AM SUGGESTING A RECALL, AS FIRESTONE ADVISED ME THAT THESE WHEELS SHOUDL HAVE BEEN PROVIDED WITH SPECIAL STEMS (METAL) PRIOR TO THE EXTENDORS BEING ADDED. AGAIN, 'IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CHECK OR ADD AIR WITHOUT EXTENDORS ON FORD DUEL WHEELS!' THANK YOU.*AK
