| Description of the problem | Michelin "hydroedge" xse tires. 90k mile warranty. After 30k miles there are deep dangerous seperations in the tread pattern on the shoulder at every single tread loop on all 4 tires.. Reports say tires explode form loss of internal integrity and people have died in accidents caused from these blowouts. . Web search confirms that there are many complaints and blowouts. Tire shold be on a safety recall list but they are not. Tires were so defective that michelin had to stop production. This is a safety hazard for blowouts. When will michelin be forced to recall these tires before someone else dies from a blow out???? When i attempted to fill out the rest of this form, the form would not allow me to enter the name for a tire line, "hydroedge" xse and the fact that all four (4) tires have the same defect. Also two of my tires do not have any date stamp in the dot # area. How could this be????? |
