2017 KIA SPORTAGE Tires Problems, Complaints and Defects

Model Year	2017
File date	03/12/19
Component	TIRES
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Though sold as "all season" m+s rated tires, the milestar ms932xp+ has dangerously poor traction on even minor snow accumulations. While driving on a flat paved state road that had 1/4 inch or less fresh snow and minimal/no treatment, in a late model awd crossover suv with 245/45r-19 tires, the milestar tires had dangerously poor traction. Any acceleration, no matter how slow, resulted in wheelspin and lateral movement of the vehicle with traction/stability control engagement. Even minimal braking pressure resulted in full abs engagement. Braking distances were extremely long. The performance of these tires was not consistent with any other all-season m+s rated tire i've used, and was more consistent with a "summer" tire. Selling these tires as "all season m+s" is misleading and dangerous.

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.
