| Description of the problem | Nexen tire's separation. I purchased a set of (4) nexen tires. To date 3 of the 4 have had to be replaced due to tread separation. Nexen refused to replace the first (2) even though they were almost brand new. Last week, a 3rd tire went bad. I had to pay for a new tire, but kept the defective tire in my possession. I'm concerned that the 4th remaining tire will blow-out at highway speeds causing an accident. Will no longer let my wife drive my truck. |
