Description of the problem	On april 15, 2011 i took my car in to the dealership for it's annual inspection. I was told that i needed 2 new tires in order to pass the inspection and that the remaining two weren't in great shape. I decided to go ahead and purchase 4 new tires and was immediately quoted a price. I assumed the tires would be the same as what was on the car, michelins. I didn't ask and they didn't say. My mistake. I rode out with 4 mastercraft avenger touring 215/60/16v tires. I didn't make a not of the dot number but the manufacture date i was 2610. On june 1, 2011 the front left tire blew out while driving on the interstate. There was a very loud pop and the tire was immediately flat. At 60 miles an hour i am grateful that i was able to safely pull over to the left shoulder. Even so, that traffic flying by while i waited for help was scary. Vdot offers roadside assistance on the highways and i am forever grateful to them for being there to change my tire. I took the tire back to the dealership and they couldn't determine what could have caused the blow out. They replaced the tire. On august 11, 2011 the front right tire blew out. By the grace of god i had taken the day off work and wasn't traveling on the interstate. I was on a city street traveling at 35 mph. Vehicle mileage was 56,858 so the tires had about 4133 miles on them for the second blow out. The dealership wasn't going to help me this time and i was looking to replace all the tires. I no longer trust the tires and my life and the lives of those around me are worth far more than the price of new tires. August 13, 2011 i purchased some michelins at a wholesale club who offer warranty and maintenance. I believe there is a serious defect in the mastercraft tires that will eventually cost someone their life.

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.
