1 Tire problem of the 2007 Volvo V70

Failure Date: 08/01/2020

Bought 2 supermax tm-1 235/45r17 94 h tires thru walmart. Com from tirebros. Treadlife advertised as 45k. At less than 20k I brought them in to a tire shop because of terrible pulling while driving. Two tire shops showed me where the the bands were separating, necessitating replacement for safety issue of catastrophic tire tearing apart at speed. Tirebros, the sellers, would not return several emails for warranty and never answered the support phone. Because of that, it's possible they know they are selling bad tires. . Read more...

Failure Date: 12/08/2003

2 rear studded tires (rotated on only 2 weeks previously) delaminated as I was exiting the freeway. Coincidental vs related destruction of u joint. Les schwab tires would only prorate value of 2 tires, not provide 4 tires all alike as needed on awd vehicle. Also denies such incident could damage transmission or u joints. Concern other 2 tires on car bought at same time may also be defective and need replacement. Concern defect with their brand to delaminate like this.

7 Tire problem of the 1999 Volvo V70

I noticed a vibration between 25-40 mph. Dealer found belt separation and cracking. There are 5 or 6 other incidents of this on 1998 and 1999 Volvo cars at this dealership. This is a factory defect and safety issue and I am unhappy that continental made me pay a pro-rata amount of $25 for each tire they replaced. (dot number: lmpdaxub tiresize: 205/65/15).

8 Tire problem of the 2001 Volvo V70

Failure Date: 03/11/2001

Manufacturer claims road hazard not tire defect. However, the tire dealer says that these wheels and tires will continue to fail because they are not appropriate for NJ roads. We have a Mercury sable which we have driven on the same roads for the equivalent average mioleage without tire failure. At these mileages three tire failures in a month is more than we think is normal for a car being driven on normal city streets and highways. We will continue to talk to the dealer, however at this point they will not take any responsibility. (dot number: xtcuco41 2).
