| We put new firestone tires on this truck for the first time on 01/27/1998, they began to fail 10/10/1998, we replaced the entire set by ~ 04/09/1999. the set installed on ~ 04/09/1999 began to fail ~ 10/02/1999, by march 2000 we were replacing the front tires, and by may of 2000 we completely removed all firestone product from the truck and placed michelin on the front and goodyear on the rear. we have had no problems since. the firestone 10.00/20 were separating the tread from the tire. this was not blow outs, but tread separation very similar to the problem now under recall. firestone is aware of our problem they have issued some credits, they admit there was a problem but no one will return my calls and the issue of the credits is not completely resolved.
