Bought a set of federal couragia mt's about five months ago still about 95% tread when two of the tires split going down the interstate. I have read all over the internet about this happening to other people with this tire in all different sizes. I also took the tires back to the company I purchased them from ans they have had a few sets brought back in the past month. Federal so far has refused to credit anyone for the issue. The tires are clearly defective and need to he recalled before someone gets physically hurt driving on them.

We purchased this vehicle new from a dealer. The truck now has approx. 14,000 miles and the tires need to be replaced. After taking it to a mechanic I was told that this make has some issues that cause the tire to wear down on the inside. I should not have to replace the tires at 14,000 miles. Dealership gave answers like depends on driver, road conditions, etc. None of these explain the premature wear of this tire. I am not alone in this problem.

Consumer was sold a 2006 Silverado with engine damages. ***** when the consumer contacted the dealership to tell them what he had discovered wit the engine cowling, they had advised him it was squirrel damage. Even though the dealer acknowledged the problem, they refused to give the consumer another vehicle. The consumer and his family had become sick. They believed it was from the bacteria coming from the venting system. The front tires were out of round and the rims were bent.

The tires do not fully contact the ground,they are rounded. Three fifths of the tire is on the ground. Once the road is wet there is a lack of stopping power. General, ameritrak ats, lt215/85r16, load range e, dot a30p1unb, 115/112s. The tires failed to grip the road when attempting to make quick or sudden stops, the abs would kick in but the stopping distance would increased with the lack of traction. Also, the center of the tire was worn 3/32 and the outer was 1/5 of each side of the tire was not in contact with the ground.

Tire just fell apart on the thruway. Luckily my wife and I are ok. I am going today to buy new tires. I will not keep or own firestone tires again. This was not a blowout, the tire failed.

2003 chevy 1500hd taken to 3 different dealers for a vibration in running gear, last dealer instructed me to lower tire pressure from 50 in front and 80 in the rear to 45 pounds all around. This is half the recommened pressure of the truck and I asked if this would be safe, I was told not to worry about it.

Consumer ordered a four wheel drive from the manufacturer, and the vehicle was delivered with 4 ply highway tires on it. These tires were not designed to handle 4 wheel operation. Manufacturer was not willing to change anything. They stated take it or leave it.

I own a 2003 z71 extended cab 4x4 Silverado w/ less than 9,000 miles. On numerous occasions on wet pavement there is no traction (the tires just spin). This causes problems when taking off (ie from a stop light) or stopping. This can cause a potential vehicle crash situation especially if you are accelerating across traffic.

When accelerating, the rear end went out of control. The good year tire dealer stated that the tire was the wrong type for the pick up truck. The tread design and the hard compound was a unsafe tire for the pickup. With a light rear end, it caused the truck to spin at a low speed and accelerate with out warning. The consumer is dissatisfied with good year service.

I have a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado with 17,000 miles on it and the vibration with the tires are driving me crazy. I have had them rotated regularly. Infact, I have rotated them more than any vehicle I have ever had. I reciently had them "trued" and balanced. The vibration continues. After a visit to my local bill heard chevy dealer, they told me that the tires are in such bad shape that they would not "index" them. I now must show them documentation of when, where and who rotated my tires in the first 6,000 miles in order for them to do anything about the situation. Now I rotate my tire myself and therefor, I have no paperwork on it. Chevrolet says to take the vechile to a goodyear tire dealership and see what they will do about it. I got more/better response from them. If the tires are 25% or less in wear, then they will replace them. Keep in mind, I had them "trued" which means I had them "shaved" to a more round shape. So now I have gone the extra mile to get the vibration out of the tires by "trueing" them and now I have to have them "deapth checked" to see if there is enough tread to justifiy a replacement. Wow! talk about damned if you do and damned if you don't! Chevrolet needs to step up to the plate and take care of there customers. I didn't buy a truck without tires, I bought a package deal. But when needed after the sale, it's the other guys malfunction and you need to go and see them. What has happened to our car companies? don't believe the comercials you see on tv.

Tires cause you to skid on any surface and have almost caused several acccidents. They have little traction at all! very dangerous!!.

All four tires on the vehicle warped and had stress marks located on the inner and outer side of the tire. There were no incidents or fatalities to report but the driver is concerned because these tires are a potential hazard; a accident waiting to happen. The tire are bridgestone lt#p2457r16 1201169.

Consumer states while driving on the freeway at about 60-65 mph he began to hear a grinding noise, he thought,it was front tire, but 30 minutes later, rear tire hub fell off. He was able to get to the side of the road and call a tow truck, and had it towed to a dealer for repair. Once at the dealer/mechanic he was told that they could not repair it under warranty because he was 3 miles over the limit, but they would repair it at 100% out of pocket cost.
