Consumer Description

I CANNOT READ THE DOT NUMBER, BUT THE TIRES WERE MANUFACTURED IN CANADA. THE FAILURE THAT OCCURED WAS AS FOLLOWS: LEFT FRONT TIRE COMPLETELY DEFLATED AFTER DRIVING ~150 MILES AT 65 MPH ON INTERSTATE 81 IN VA. NO PUNCTURE WAS FOUND, HOWEVER AIR WAS LEAKING FROM LARGE CRACKS THAT APPEARED AT THE TREAD LINE. SIMILAR CRACKS WERE OBSERVED ON THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE, ALTHOUGH IT DID NOT DEFLATE. BOTH FRONT TIRES WERE REPLACED WITH THE SAME FIRESTONE TIRES ON 6/1/2000. THE REAR TIRES ARE NOW DEVELOPING CRACKS IN THE SAME LOCATIONS.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P255 70R16 )
