Tire Blowout Problems of GMC Sierra 1500

On Saturday, February 27, 2021, my husband (driver) and myself (passenger) were traveling on a saint louis highway and the rear passenger tire suddenly blew with no warning. There were no tire pressure or other warnings displayed on the dash of the truck. After pulling over, we discovered the entire side of the tire had completely blown (large holes over the entirety of the wall of the tire). It was not until a minute or two after the tire blew that the truck displayed a low tire pressure warning. After researching the tire maker's website, I discovered a recall for the exact tire however, the date as listed on the dot number was one week off. Our tires should have also been included in the recall as the description of the tire maker's defect was exactly as it occurred when our tire blew out.

Driving on freeway at speed limit of 75 mph on rural freeway when right rear tire separated and blew. There was nothing the driver hit or ran over. It just blew out almost causing a very bad accident.

Running highway speed and had a blow out on right rear tire. The tire split from where the tread starts all the way down the sidewall. The other incident in which the right front tire had a blow out, I was slowing down upon coming off of the highway. The tire damage was almost identical to the previous description. The tire split from the tread all the way down to the sidewall. I do not have the first tire that had a blow out; however, the incident that took place on the highway at 70 mph, I do still have the entire set of tires and several pictures of the damaged tire on the rim. I have replaced these tires, but would like to be informed of any reimbursement from the manufacturer that I may be intitled to, due to these incidents and the current status of recall on these tires. ( dot number: tire size: p265/75/16 ).
