Description of the problem	Within the last 2 weeks i have had tread separation on 2 of my truck tires. I was able to discover the problem before a complete failure due to abnormal vibration and subsequent inspection. These were continental contitrac lt275 65r18 tires on my ford f250. Dot p5b9 1vub with no apparent manufacture date code. The first failure occurred at 24554 miles and the second at 26000 miles. The tires were carefully maintained, the vehicle stored indoors and never off road. The dealership replaced the first with a replacement dot a3b9 479b 4710. I will now fight with ford to replace the other defective tire and the 2 that have not yet failed. After reviewing the internet it is apparent that there have been a lot of problems with this brand of tire. I felt compelled to report my experience because it is clear to me that this is a defective batch and if it has not happened already, somebody is going to get killed or injured. Please investigate.
