Description of the problem	I purchased a 2013 lincoln mkx in april 2015; dealer said they installed 4 new michelin green-x tires, latitude tour 245/60 r18, dot ap4a 005x, and was told they are rated at 90,000 miles i recently felt a vibration while driving at 55-60 mph so i checked the tires visually and found what looked like little jigsaw shaped pieces of tread that you could actually lift with a touch of your finger!! I called the dealer where i bought the car (& tires) and they said they would tow it to their service facility. I decided to drive it there, and by the time i arrived (about 40-45 miles) all those flaps of rubber were gone!! They had come off and left gaping holes where the tread used to be, all over the front tires. The service manager said he'd never seen anything like it and called other mechanics and service personnel; they were all curious as well. The dealership replaced all 4 tires with more michelins, then my son told me the tires are defective and should be recalled. It doesn't seem that michelin is very concerned about their customer's safety, as this website doesn't list my tires as being recalled. The dealership charged me about $1000 for the new tires, but i'm very worried these tires are also defective!! I think michelin or the dealership should replace the tires for free, with something else that is not defective! I will never buy michelin tires again, nor will i buy another vehicle from this dealership.

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.
