NHTSA Complaint #11386317 — 2017 FORD EXPLORER

LAST NIGHT ONE OF MY HANKOOK S1 NOBLE ON MY 2017 FORD EXPLORER BLEW OUT WHILE DRIVING ON THE 405 FREEWAY AND REQUIRED ME TO PULL OVER AND CHANGE THE TIRE. AT 21,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE/ TIRES THE MECHANIC SHOP TOLD ME THE TIRES WERE BASICALLY BALD AND HAD RUBBER EVENLY ERODING (WHICH INDICATES NOT AN ALIGNMENT ISSUE). THE TIRES WERE ALSO ROTATED AND SUPPOSED TO LAST 50,000 MILES. THERE ARE ALSO MANY OTHER COMPLAINS ON THESE TIRES THROUGHOUT THE INTERNET BUT NOT RECALL HAS BEEN INITIATED BY HANKOOK. THEY HAVE ADVISED THEY WILL GIVE A PRO-RATED DISCOUNT ON NEW TIRES, WHICH IS COMPLETELY UNREASONABLE AND NEGLIGENT..
