NHTSA Complaint #11243868 — 2018 RAM 3500

WE PURCHASED A 2018 RAM 3500 DUALLY WITH NEXEN TIRES ON IT AT 13,000 MILES THE BELTS IN THE FRONT TIRES CAME APART AT THIS TIME AFTER DOING SOME CHECKING ON LINE THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON WITH THE NEXEN TIRES BEGINNING IN 2017 THERE ARE MANY REPORTS ABOUT THE NEXEN TIRES COMPLETELY COMING APART WHEN TOWING. WE CONTACTED RAM AND THEY JUST SENT US THE CONTACT INFORMATION FOR NEXEN TIRES. WE GUESS IT MUST TAKE SOME PEOPLE GETTING KILLED FROM THESE NEXEN TIRES BEFORE ANYONE CARES, THAT IS UNFORTUNATE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE LIKE THIS IS IGNORED BY RAM & NHTSA WE WERE DRIVING OUR RAM ON THE FREEWAY WHEN THE FRONT END STARTED TO WOBBLE ALMOST UNCONTROLLABLY UNTIL WE GOT UNDER 40 MPH IT STILL WOBBLED BUT WE COULD MAKE IT TO DISCOUNT TIRE TO PURCHASE NEW TIRES. WE HAVE THE OLD TIRES. IF WE WERE TOWING OUR 5TH WHEEL THIS MAY HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *PM
