NHTSA Complaint #10091081 — 2001 TOYOTA SEQUOIA

FAILURE REGUARDING TO TIRES....IN PARTICULAR TO TOYO TIRES / OPEN COUNTRY, 265/R70/16. HE PROBLEM IS A SAFETY ISSUE, THE TIRES ARE CRACKING IN THE TREAD GROOVES. AND NOT JUST ONE TIRE ALL FOUR TIRES, TO TOP THAT ALL OFF THESE ARE THE SECOND SET....THE FIRST ONE'S WERE ALREADY REPLACED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE ORIGINALS HAD ONLY LESS THAN 10,000MILES WHEN I, HAD NOTICED THE CRACKING, TOYO TIRES REPLACED ALL FOUR BECAUSE OF THE DEFECT( ALL FOUR TIRE WERE CRACKED). THE REPLACEMENT SET ALSO CRACKED THE SAME WAY, BUT I, HAD JUST NOTICED THE DEFECT....ALMOST 45,000MILES LATER (AGAIN ALL FOUR TIRES ARE CRACKED THE SAME WAY. I HAVE BEEN TOLD DIFFERENT AND CHANGING STORIES. WHAT I WANT TO KNOW ARE THESE TIRES SAFE....I'M WORRIED ABOUT MY FAMILIES SAFETY, ARE THESE TIRES GOING TO EXPLODE AS THEY DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY(WE HAVE A LARGE SUV). THIS DEFECT SHOULD BE CHECKED OUT. I CAN SEND A COPY OF THE BILLS AND THE AUTHORIZATION NUMBERS FOR THE REPLACEMENTS (SECOND SET / ALL FOUR). ALSO I AM WILLING TO SEND THE TIRES. HOW CAN THIS BE 8 TIRES ALL CRACK THE SAME WAY, IS THIS A BIG DEFECT? OR DOES THE, NUMBER OF DEATHS, BOX NEED A NUMBER IN IT FIRST?*AK
