Consumer Description

WHILE TRAVELING 70 MPH, I SUFFERED A FRONT TIRE FAILURE. A NARROW STRIP 1" WIDE BY 6" LONG SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE. I WROTE TWICE TO KUMHO WITH NO RESPONSE. I HAVE DRIVEN 50+ YEARS AND I HAVE NEVER HAD SUCH A TIRE MALFUNCTION. I DID NOT DRIVE OVER ANYTHING AS THERE WAS NO OTHER DAMAGE. THIS KUMHO TIRE SHOULD BE REVIEWED FOR SAFETY REASONS.
