Consumer Description

I PURCHASED BRAND NEW MICHELIN DEFENDER TIRES THREE WEEKS AGO FROM A MICHELIN CERTIFIED AUTO REPAIR SHOP. TODAY WE HAD A CATASTROPHIC BLOW OUT...CONSISTENT WITH A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. WE WERE DRIVING LESS THAN ONE MILE FROM OUR HOME, ON A CLEAR DAY, WITH NO POT HOLES, OR OBSTACLES IN THE ROAD. WE DID NOT HIT OR RUN OVER ANYTHING. WE WERE DRIVING LESS THAN 30 MILES PER HOUR...ON A CLEAR CITY STREET IN VIRGINIA. THE CAR IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE....IT WAS OBVIOUS THE TIRE HAD A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. WE WENT ACROSS THE STREET TO MERCHANTS TIRE AND AUTO. THE TIRE HAD FOUR BLOW OUT HOLES ON EVERY SINGLE SIDE OF THIS TIRE. THIS TIRE IS ONLY 3 WEEKS OLD. IT HAS LESS THAN 200 MILES ON IT. MICHELIN REFUSED TO WARRANTY THIS TIRE. THEY COVERED ONLY 50 % OF THE TIRE. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING WITH MY 4 CHILDREN IN THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY...WE WOULD HAVE BEEN INJURED. THE TIRE WAS CONFISCATED (PER MICHELIN) BY MERCHANTS TIRE AND AUTO. *TR
