TIRES:TREAD/BELT
I ORIGINALLY BOUGHT 4 YOKOHAMA TIRES IN 8/98 FROM SEARS/NTB @ MILEAGE OF 106780. THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE BLEW OUT ON THE HIGHWAY. THERE WAS A TINY CRACK AT OUTER EDGE OF TREAD (MILEAGE APPROX. 141500). SEARS/NTBSTATED THE TIRE COULD NOT BE FIXED AND I HAD TO PAY FOR A NEW YOKOHAMA TIRE (ON 7/19/99 - MILEAGE 141594). AT MILEAGE OF 153128, I WAS ADVISED BY MY MAZDA SERVICE ADVISOR, DURING A MAINTENANCE CHECK THAT BOTH FRONT TIRES WERE SHOWING CORDS. EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A WARRENTY OF 60,000 MILES (AND I ALREADY HAD A NEWER TIRE), I WAS ADVISED BY SEARS/NTB TO REPLACE THE REMAINING 3. I PURCHASED THE 3 NEW YOKOHAMA TIRES FROM THEM. THE MILEAGE WAS AT 153284. ON 3/23/00, MY RIGHT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A SURFACE STREET. THE TIRE HAD A TINY CRACK ON THE OUTER EDGE OF THE TREAD. AGAIN, I WAS ADVISED BY SEARS/NTB THAT THE TIRE COULD NOT BE FIXED. MILEAGE WAS 162292. IT SEEMS UNUSUAL THAT I HAVE HAD SO PROBLEMS WITH THE YOKOHAMA TIRES. I SUSPECT THAT THERE MAY BE A DEFECT, WHICH IS WHY I AM FILING MY COMPLAINT. I ALSO HAVE ALL MY DOCUMENTATION IF YOU NEED IT. *AK( DOT NUMBER: 5229 TIRE SIZE: P19565H14 )
