Consumer Description

FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER A BULGE DEVELOPED IN THIS TIRE. IT GREW ON ITS OWN OVERNIGHT TO TWICE THE ORIGINAL SIZE WHEN I DISCOVERED IT. I TOOK IT IMMEDIATELY TO THE DEALER AND IT WAS REPLACED WITH A SIMILAR TIRE. THIS REPLACEMENT TIRE HAS 1991 STAMPED ON IT, THE ORIGINAL FOR DO NOT. I THOUGHT THIS WAS JUST A FLUKE, BUT WITH ALL THE NEWS ABOUT FIRESTONE, I MUST TELL YOU I AM VERY UNEASY ABOUT DRIVING WITH THESE TIRES. WHAT IF ANOTHER BULGE COMES UP AND BLOWS OUT, AND CAUSES AN ACCIDENT? I HOPE YOU WILL LOOK INTO THIS BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT OF MALIBUS IN RALEIGH WITH THESE SAME TIRES, (I CHECKED). THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME, BARBARA DIPERT. *AK (DOT NUMBER: 93T MTS TIRESIZE: P215/60R15)
