| Complete dot: c2ur h4lr 487. first incident, rf and lr tires began to make noise. tire dealer discovered that the tread was about to separate. they advised that there was no recall or warning about this problem. however, they have noticed that this manufacture and model has more problems than some others. therefore, they have stopped selling these tires. they advised that the other two remaining republic tires may/or may not have the same problem. if so, they would replace them also. four months later in august, the other two tires began to make noise indicating potential separation. i was out-of-town on an interstate at the time. i had to travel approximately 15 more miles with a highway patrol following me to make sure no crash occurred. i made it to another tire dealership for replacements. they too showed me the bubbles in the treads of these two tires. again, the initial tire dealer stated that the manufacture knew about the problem but was paying for replacements instead of issuing a notice/warning/recall. i would like an explanation of what it takes to get a manufacture to notice/warn or recall of problems they learn about their products. i was pregnant when this happened. needless to say, this does not make me feel comfortable with my vehicle or tires.*ak (dot number: c2urh4lr48 tiresize: 205/65/r15) | |||
