Description of the problem	I have cooper discover tires on my suv i put on brand new that i bought from my ford dealer on aug 16th on 2008 it is a 2005 kia sorento i bought it brand new in 2004 so i needed new tires and that is what i bought i drove the vehicle every day back and forth to work when i put the tires on my kia it had 30,402 miles on it now it has a little over 75,000 miles on now they tell me they are dry rotted and i know that they are wearing but i also had a 4 wheel alignment done when they where put on also i had them rotated every 5000 miles also they where ms245/r70-16 4 of them i bought at once i just don't understand how they could be dry rotated and why they didn't even last 60,000 miles we don't drive like maniacs and we take very good care of our vehicles in fact i didn't even work in the last 2 years my husband was only driving in town where we live from one end of town to the other i even had the nitro put in my tires so they didn't fluctuate with the temperature. So i was wandering if there was a recall on these tires and i wasn't notified if so could you please post it so i could print it out to take it to the dealer to get them taken care of thank you because they will not do nothing about them they said there is no warranty on the tires and no mileage guarantee.

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.
