Tire Blowout Problems of Chevrolet Tahoe

Nexen tire's separation. I purchased a set of (4) nexen tires. To date 3 of the 4 have had to be replaced due to tread separation. Nexen refused to replace the first (2) even though they were almost brand new. Last week, a 3rd tire went bad. I had to pay for a new tire, but kept the defective tire in my possession. I'm concerned that the 4th remaining tire will blow-out at highway speeds causing an accident. Will no longer let my wife drive my truck.

Goodyear silent armor tire is prematurely failing in its sidewall and / the continuity of the product's integrity is compromised. This has already led to a premature blowout in the highway (defined as the exact same reason for the current goodyear silent armor recall and nevada lawsuit) and can be seen on two of the 3 remaining tires. The only exception is that this was on a tires produced in 05-10 (one of them) and 11/10 (one of them). I took pictures of the blown tire and of the remaining tires awaiting an opportunity to provide to consul.

I purchased 5 toyo proxies 285/60/18 and have had a blow out on the side wall of two within the last year with premature cracking on all of the tires. The first tire that blew out I thought was just an accident. But after purchasing the 5th tire and then having a blow out on 4/2/2008, within 6 mos of them, where the sidewall was affected, I decided to look online and found where the proxies were having issues with other consumers with blowing out the sidewalls. Co wanted a four wheel drive business that deals with their product and have them inspected. They were inspected and showed the tire depth, premature cracking, etc. After having them inspected, business condemned the tires tire manf then decided that they had to have the tires back before they would issue any warranty or prorating on them. Did say that they would issue a prorate of 78% on each tire, but I had to send the tires to them via ups which they would pick up the cost of having the tires shipped up to them. As I explained I had no problem sending the tires as in good conscience, I could not sale these tires to anyone else as being in this field for 13 years and knowing the safety issues regarding tires having these issues, I did not feel that they were safe for anyone to have on their vehicles. Ups picked up the tires and after a few phone calls I finally received a letter from tire CO stating that they were not going to warranty or prorate the tire as they did not see anything wrong with them. I travel the interstate quite a bit and after having two of the sidewalls blow out as they did I was very fortunate that I didn't cause a severe accident and I would consider this to be a safety hazard for interstate travelers at high rates of speed. This is something as a consumer, that I feel should be looked into more closely as it could cause a serious accident.

Right front tire blew out. Dealership claims a nail caused the entire sidewall to blow out. We strongly disagree with them. The tire wasn't leaking air, wasn't underinflated, there were no steering problems, and the tire didn't show any sign of wear. The entire sidewall blew out and cause damage to the tire and rim. For our safety we have removed these firestone tires from our vehicle, and they are here at our home for inspection. We believe there is a problem with this make of tire.
