Tire Blowout Problems of Acura TL

Bought new michelin tires in Feb 2008 from costco stores, hackscross road, memphis tire: size 205/60r16 92v made in 2007. In use for 2,500 miles. Rear right tire blew from the side wall while driving in interstate. The entire side wall came out as a donut. No accident occurred. No injury. Concerned about the tire quality of michelin tires. Please advice. Contact mr. Perryadolpus automotive manager at costco phone 901 214 0071; who inspected the defective tire and mentioned that it is a manufacturing defect. A new tire was installed. Greatly concerned about the durability of the other new michelin tires installed at the same time in my 2003 Acura Tl vehicle. Mileage 67,000.

The carelessness of the workers completing construction on interstate 275. I have had to replace two high performance tires; due to a screw which caused my tire to blow with the first tire on the interstate at 4:45 am, had to spend $266. 46 to replace tire. Then a week and a half later while driving on the same interstate going to work had to replace another tire due to a nail, another $200. 00. I think it is the responsibility of dot to make sure all screws and nails are cleared off the interstate since people are having to travel in order to get to work each day. To have to pay over $400, in a week and half; money that I don't have it is taking a toll on me financially. I think dot needs to step up and take responsibility for all the loose nails and screws being left on the interstate.

My 2004tl came with bridgestone turanza el-42 tires. The dealer stated tires would be acceptable when I stated concerns with what I had read about flat spotting. On my first long distance trip (500+ miles) my front passenger tire blew off the rim. I had to have it replaced at procter Acura in tallahassee which in formed me to take tire to a tire manufacturer since it is warrantied thru its manufactururer. As of this date nothing has been done. I bought a new tire ($225) and am waiting to hear what else bridgestone will do to compensate me.
