Description of the problem	I own a 2004 audi a4 3. 0 quattro with pirelli p6 4seasons p235/34r17 tires. I took the car to the firestone tire store to get the tires balanced because they were vibrating. The firestone store employee showed me the tires later on because he believed these were unsafe to drive. A total of three of the tires showed some type of defect: one of the tires (front left) has a big bubble in the center of the tire, the other two tires (both are rear) are coming apart in the inside wall (i can provide a pictures of the tires--the defected tire with the bubble can not be noticed unless the tire is placed on the balanced machine). Both rear tires are actually coming apart in the same pattern. I started researching on the nhtsa website and it appears that these tires were collected among other eleven tires (twelve total models) a collection site in phoenix, arizona on or about 2004 to conduct a study. The website i found this article is: http://dig. Abclocal. Go. Com/kgo/pdf/tire_aging_nhtsa. Pdf (see appendix a, and appendix e). I would like to know how i can get pirelli to replace these tires at no cost since these tires appear to have a at least 5 to 10,000 miles remaining of life. I would like to thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter which would indeed save lives.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
