Consumer Description

I HAD FLAT TIRES IN THREE OF MY 4 TIRES IN A 6 WEEK PERIOD. THE FIRST AND THIRD OF THESE 3 FLATS WERE TRACED TO A CRACK IN THE VALVE STEM. THE 2ND AND 3RD FLATS OCCURRED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WITHIN 50 MINUTES OF EACH OTHER DAMAGING BOTH TIRES BEYOND REPAIR. THE SECOND TIRE CAUSED SEVERE PULLING TO THE RIGHT. BY THE TIME I PULLED OVER THE TIRE WAS SMOKING. SEARS HAD INSTALLED THESE TIRES IN 2006. THEY SUSPECT THE TECH TR413 VALVE STEM WAS THE CULPRIT. SEARS AGREED TO REPLACE ALL TIRES WITH NEW. THIS WORK HAS NOT YET BEEN DONE YET SO ONE VALVE STEM REMAINS INSTALLED AND WILL BE CLOSELY INSPECTED UPON REPLACEMENT. DO YOU WANT THIS VALVE STEM RETURNED FOR INSPECTION? THE POLICE PROVIDED AN ESCORT FOR TIRE FAILURE #2 SO POLICE RECORDS SURELY EXIST THOUGH I FILED NO FORMAL REPORT. *TR
