Consumer Description

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE AS A CPO VEHICLE WITH 4 BRAND NEW EAGLE F1 ASYMMETRIC 2 TIRES. WITHIN MONTHS ALL 4 TIRES DEVELOPED BUBBLES THAT TORE OPEN VIA AN INITIAL BUBBLE OR THEY TORE OPEN WITHOUT WARNING. ALL 4 WERE REPLACED AND LESS THAN 8 MONTHS LATER ANOTHER ONE DEVELOPED A TEAR SO LONG THAT I COULD NOT EVEN DRIVE IT AS A RUN FLAT. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED. THESE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE AS WELL AS TOTALLY UNSAFE AND I WANT MY MONEY BACK. ALL 5 WENT FLAT AND MY CAR NOTIFIED ME OF IT. SOME WHILE DRIVING, SOME JUST AFTER I STARTED THE CAR AND HAD NOT EVEN DRIVEN IT ANYWHERE. I DRIVE ONLY 6 MILES TO WORK ON SIDE STREETS, NO HIGHWAY = ABOUT 8,000 TOTAL MILES PER YEAR OR LESS. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AND, NO, I DID NOT HIT A POT HOLE OR A CURB OR ANYTHING ELSE TO CAUSE 5 TIRES TO RUPTURE!! EVERY ONE SPLIT AT THE SAME SPOT ON THE TIRES... SEE PICTURE FOR EXAMPLE. DOT NE32JH1R4016, DOT NEJAJD1R4817, DOT NE32JH1R2215, DOT NEJAJD1R4817, AND DOT ME32JH1R4217. FIVE TIRES IN LESS THAN ONE YEAR IS NOT NORMAL AND I WANT THE MEN TO STOP INSINUATING IT IS MY DRIVING BECAUSE I ASSURE YOU IT IS NOT MY FAULT.
