Description of the problem	A set of michelin tires was purchased from costco and mounted on my 2006 mercedes about one year ago. The morning after the first 6,000-mile tire rotation, the front tire on the driver's side completely separated from the vehicle on i-40 west of albuquerque, nm. Costco paid for a replacement tire and damage to the rim. Then, on may 13, 2009 another one of the original set of michelin tires separated in a similar fashion again on i-40, nearly creating a major traffic fatality. Three semi-trucks adeptly swerved to avoid colliding with my vehicle. This time, i had to pay $1,724 to repair damage to the shock absorber and wheel well on the rear end of the passenger side. The cost also includes $880 that i paid for a new set of michelin tires from the mercedes dealership, which informed me that their tires were not compromised by extended storage in warehouses (i. E., dry-rotting). Costco offered to put another new set of their tires on my vehicle, but i refused to take the risk of having old dry-rotted tires placed on my vehicle again. Consequently, costco refused to pay any of the $880 charge for the new mercedes dealership tires. Note: the first incident was reported to the police and aaa towed the car on both occasions.
