225 /60 r 17 99h was driving on a freeway when heard a pop, pulled over immediately on left shoulder and tire had holes in sidewall putting me in a very dangerous situation. Yokohama consumer affairs could care less about the situation, I hope people dont hurt driving with these tires.
Three of four original equipment tires failed, the first one at 10k miles. Two failures were located at the sidewall/tread corner. The third tire failure was located in the tread area. The third tire is available for inspection. The vehicle electronic system informed us of the tire problem, when tires failed, so vehicle could be moved to safe area. The vehicle was inspected by Subaru of little rock, ar on July 23, 2024. Tire size: 225/60r17 the first failure was 1/25/24 with 10k miles the second failure (of a different tire) was on 7/16/2024 with 19k miles. The third failure (of a different tire) was on 8/8/2024 with 20k miles. See case number with Subaru of America # 240808-2001440.
