2 Tire Sidewall problem of the 2014 Dodge Dart

Failure Date: 07/17/2014

Hit a very small rock, approximately the size of two golf balls, going about 43 mph. My kumho solus kh25 tire of my 2014 Dodge Dart blew out upon impact with this very small rock. Caused a blowout on the sidewall of the tire. I feel like that was not enough to cause a blowout. I feel unsafe on the roads with these tires that Dodge has put on the vehicle. I only have 1400'miles on the car. Obviously I will have to replace my tire and I feel like these tires aren't very safe.

5 Tire Sidewall problem of the 2013 Dodge Dart

Failure Date: 11/19/2013

After a routine trip in vehicle where speeds did not exceed 55 mph, a broken sidewall was noticed on drivers side front tire, a kumho solus kh25. Decision to replace delayed initially. Days later, a second break in sidewall appeared inches from first. Upon inspection, a third break in passenger side front tire noticed. No new routes or roads had been traveled in comparison to previous vehicle/tire combination and no known severe impact contributed. After reading that many other owners have had issues with kumho factory installed wheels I determined mine is not an isolated issues and that the stock wheel is, as it seems, more likely to fail than others. This is an unprecedented number of failures all at low mileage in conditions and on roads that previous vehicles experienced no issues with. During a service visit for an oil change a dealer tried to sell me two tires but made no mention of other owners having similar issues or any attempt to reduce the cost/impact despite the fact that I had taken delivery of the vehicle a short time prior to two tires failing.

6 Tire Sidewall problem of the 2013 Dodge Dart

Failure Date: 07/15/2013

Kumho solus kh 25 tires included on my 2013 Dodge Dart (safety recall) all 4 tires on my 2013 Dodge Dart are breaking in the sidewall, cracking, and losing excessive amounts of air. First tire replaced (2/7/14) iao $132. 42 replaced with a brand new solus kh25. Now, I have two rear tires leaking air quickly (dot 4212) & the driver side tire has been replaced with my spare. These tires started performing safety hazards 3-4 months after the first tire replacement in 02/14. I would really appreciate this complaint be investigated, so I can drive on safe tires with my child after being provide a set of new tires.
