I had purchased these tires p225/50r17 for my son‘s car in 2022. They have an 85,000 mile tread life warranty in April of this year. He had a blowout on the left rear tire where the tread separated from the tire and in late July this year is preparing for a 3500 mile trip as I was inspecting his car before his trip. I noticed the tire on the right rear looked to be defective. It looks like the tread where it meet the sidewall is separating from the tire on the inside with a tear about 8” long where the metal is showing. Two tires out of 4 losing their tread is disturbing and a concerning safety issue with these tires, see the photos I have supplied.
Tl- the contact owns a kumho tires ecsta size 225/50/r17 on a 2012 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that when putting air in the tires, the tread on the tires started to separate from the tire. The vehicle was taken to the dealer kauffman tire 10190 highway 142 north, covington, GA 30014 who replaced the tires. The manufacturer was notified and a case was opened case number 15433. The vehicle failure mileage was unavailable. The tire failure mileage was 20,000 miles. VIN not available. Hk.
Driving to work like any other day, suddenly I heard a pop. Wasn't too sure what it was but then my tire pressure low message popped up. After realizing what it was, I had to call roadside assistance to change it out and I examined the tire and saw that the outside wall was tore up and there wasn't any holes in the tread.
