RECEIVED 2ND NOTICE OF RECALL R63/NHTSA 15V-800 STATING PARTS WERE NOW AVAILABLE AND TO CALL DEALER FOR INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT IF NECESSARY. CALL TO DEALER WHO INDICATED PARTS WERE NOT AVAIL AND COULD TAKE UP TO A YEAR TO ARRIVE. HOW CAN AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL BE TREATED LIKE ITS NO PROBLEM? THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE AND I WOULD LIKE AN IMMEDIATE REPLY TO FEEL I'M DOING MY BEST TO KEEP MY FAMILY SAFE.

WHEELS
DRIVING HOME FROM MY PARENTS HOUSE MAYBE A MILE AWAY FROM HOME AIR PRESSURE GAUGE LIGHT ILLUMINATED WE LIVE LESS THAN A MILE AWAY FROM LOCAL GAS STATION THAT HAS AIR PUMP. WE DROVE MY WIFE AND THREE KIDS TO THE GAS STATION TO GET AIR IN THE DEFLATED TIRED AS SOON AS THE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. AS WE APPROACHED THE GAS STATION LITERALLY 150 FT AWAY, THE CAR STARTS TO SHAKE AND RUMBLE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE LEFT TIRE. JUST HAD THE CAR AT THE DEALER LAST SATURDAY WITH NO MENTION OF ISSUES WITH THE TIRES. UPON INSPECTION THE SIDEWALL OF THE KUMHO KH25 TIRES WAS CRACKING. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION YOU CAN SEE NOTICEABLE WEAR ON THE SIDE WALLS OF THE OTHER TIRES. CAR STARTED TO RUMBLE FOR ANOTHER 20-30 FEET BEFORE WE WERE ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND EVALUATE. THIS IS PRETTY UNACCEPTABLE TO ME KUHMO TIRES HAVE APPARENTLY HAD A PRETTY BAD REPUTATION HERE IN THE US WHY ARE MANUFACTURES STILL USING THIS COMPANY?!?! THIS IS A DAILY DRIVER I AM ON THE SAME ROADS CONSTANTLY THE ONLY VARIANT IS ONE SET OF TRACKS THAT I TRAVEL OVER ONCE A WEEK...THERE IS NO WAY THIS WAS CAUSED FROM NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON A CAR THAT HAS 9K MILES ON IT.
