Consumer Description

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A JAGUAR WITH FUZION HRI 225/45/17 TIRES. I NOTICED THAT ONE OF THE TIRES HAD A SIX INCH CIRCUMFERENTIAL SEPARATION AT THE LETTERING ON THE INSIDE SIDEWALL. THE TIRE STILL HAD 9/32 OF 10/32 TREADWEAR AVAILABLE. THE TIRE WAS REPLACED WITH A NEW IDENTICAL TIRE UNDER MANUFACTURES WARRANTY. I THEN NOTICED THAT THE OTHER FRONT TIRE HAD AN IDENTICAL BUT SHORTER SEPARATION ON THE INSIDE SIDEWALL. THE DEALER WAS AGAIN CONTACTED AND ADVISED OF THE DEFECT. THE DEALER REPRESENTATIVE IS CONTACTING THE MANUFACTURER OF FUZION TIRES TO CHECK FOR A DEVELOPING TREND. I MYSELF GOOGLED THE TIRE FOR OTHER REPORTED DEFECTS. I FOUND SEVERAL INCIDENTS OF UNEXPLAINED TIRE BLOWOUTS INVOLVING THE FUZION HRI THAT WERE REPORTED TO VARIOUS WEBSITES. THE FUZION TIRE IS NOT AMONG THE CHOICES ON YOUR WEBSITE DROP MENUS. *TR
