Tire problem #1

My car has been serviced according to Volvo's recommendations. Volvo dealer balanced and rotated my tires at 15,000 miles and indicated they were fine. Al 16,000 miles the two rear tires (which were in the fron until the 15,000 mile service) started disintegrating at 16,000 miles (the steel cords started coming out). This can't be normal! I have tried to contact Volvo numerous times (the dealer and Volvo's 800 customer servicenumber) and Volvo is ignoring my calls. I saw other Volvo C70 cars at the dealer with similar problems and they only had 12,000 miles!. Car tires should last longer than this! have you received other complaints from Volvo C70 owners? thank you very much! (dot number: na tiresize: p22550r16).
