| After a couple thousand miles on mission tires st235-80-16 two of the four tires fell apart the third was almost pealing apart on a very busy interstate 270 near washington dc causing thousands of dollars worth of damage to my 2007 keystone montana and risking injury. we had to buy two new tires then drive back to just tires to replace the other two when the advised me that they were defective tires their term to describe it was dilapidation poor curing of the tire which caused the entire tread to fall off the tire. beckley camping center in thurmont md (301-898-3300 keith srv manager) advised me that they are aware of the issue and the only recourse as of now it that mission will credit us the price of the tires and not the damage that it caused. i have seen on the internet about mission tires having to date caused injury and death. as of now the estimate to fix the damage that it caused is about $3,000.00. *tr | |||
