TIRES HAVE LESS THAN 1000 MILES ON THEM AND TREAD SEPARATES AND TIRE BLOWS CAUSING RV TO SWERVE ON ROAD AND TEAR UP EXTERIOR AS WELL AS INTERIOR PARTS. ALSO SENDS PARTS AND PRICES OF TIRE AND RV INTO TRAFFIC. TIRE WAS INFLATED TO CORRECT PRESSURE AND HAS FULL TIRED DEPTH LEFT ON THEM. TIRES SEEM TO BLOW OUT AT AROUND 60-70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. I NOTIFIED THE DEALER WHERE TIRES WERE PURCHASED AND WAS TOLD AKURET KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM AND SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THE CLAIM. IF A PROBLEM IS KNOWN WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL. NOT A VERY FUN TIME WHEN RV STARTS TO GO ALL OVER THE ROAD AND PUTS FAMILY IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS TIRE IS TALKED A LOT BY RV FORUMS.
