general problems of the 2000 Nissan Frontier

Went to my local garage to get my tires balanced. Mechanic reported that 1 of the 4 tires (all bought together) was beginning to come apart internally / belt separation. The tires were installed during October of 2019. They have less than 8000 miles on the tires. Vendor is reimbursing me for the one tire that was found to have the defect. Thankfully this was caught early, but am very concerned as the other 3 tires have the same dot number.

Tire failure. Driving about 55mph, felt vibration in rear of truck then loud thumping noise (tread slapping rear fender). Stopped vehicle and discovered tread was missing from tire. Tire was not flat.

When the incident happen a part of the tire came apart and it damage the body and the gasoline tank fixture. My two sons were with me at the time.

The tire tread came off the tire front and back on drivers side causing me to go out of control and damage to my driver 's side leaving me with out a vehicle four months. Dt.

Currently the vehicle is at allstar Nissan in baton rouge,la and the service department stated that it was a faulty tire and was one of the brands that was recalled. (tiresize: ht21565r15).

During new york state motor vehicle inspection of above mentioned vehicle, it was pointed out by the licensed inspector that the tires on said vehicle showed an abnormal and excessive amount of cracking/checking in the deep portion of the tread(inner and outer grove of each tire). For a tire with these few miles and less than one year old the inspector felt that, eventhough they passed inspection, I should persue the matter further with regard to warrantee agreements. The inspector seem to feel that there was reason to be concerned about this tire if I was going to do some towing later in the year. I called Nissan motor-filed a report with them-they sent me to call on bf goodrich-filed a report with them. -bf goodrich sent me to a dealer that handles there claims-he looked at the tire and told me that it was dry rot and that it was normal-I have since gone to another nys motor vehicle inspection station, they seem to feel that this is not normal for a tire with these few miles and this age. . I have since been looking at tires of other vehicles with even more miles and do not see any cracking/checking to the extent that I do with these tires. . Can someone please help?

Consumer states two cuts were found on his general grabber (p265/70r16) tires consumer was advised tires not covered under warranty.

The two rear tires were "out of round" at 6,943 (3/29/00) and replaced. At 12,289 (7/25/00) the driver's side front tire had a flat which was repaired. 3 out of 4 new tires isn't a fluke. I replaced the tires with michelen symmetry tires on 9/12/00. The dealer & manufacturer haven't responded personally to this problem. They seemed unconcerned about my safety concerns. (dot number: w2vf tiresize: p215/65r15).

The dealer claims that there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. Yet they have replaced the tires twice. They are treating symptoms not fixing the problem.
