Consumer Description

ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS IN 2006 AND 2007, OEM CONTINENTAL TOURING TIRES 225/45R17 ON MY 2006 JAGUAR X-TYPE SPORT SEDAN SUFFERED SPONTANEOUS, CATASTROPHIC BLOW OUT FAILURE UNDER WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOMINAL OPERATING CONDITIONS. {I-95, I-495, CLEAR DRY PAVEMENT, SPEED BELOW 80 MPH]. SINCE THOSE EVENTS, REMAINING TIRES HAVE EXHIBITED SIDEWALL BULGING AND OTHER EVIDENCE OF CORD SEPARATION. TODAY (12/26/2008) WHILE VISITING SAFETY WEBSITE, LEARNED OF AT LEAST 50 SIMILAR SPONTANEOUS FAILURES OF SAME PRODUCT, WHICH IS ALSO OE TIRE ON MERCEDES C300 AND BMW 3 SERIES SEDANS. THIS SEEMS TO BE MORE THAN COINCIDENCE. *TR
