Consumer Description

I WAS EXPERIENCING A VERY BAD SHAKE TO MY TRUCK. IT WAS WANDERING ON THE ROAD AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MPH. I INSPECTED THE TIRES AND FOUND A 14 INCH CRACK DOWN THE CENTER OF THE TREAD OF ONE TIRE. THE OTHER TIRES TREAD WERE WORN IN AN UNEVEN PATTERN (CUPPING) . I CONTACTED FIRESTONE DEALER. WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WERE NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND THEIR WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME. DUE TO SAFTEY REASONS I PURCHASED NEW GOODYEAR TIRES THE SAME DAY. I HAVE RETAINED THE OLD TIRES. PLEASE ADVIES IF THESE TIRES HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND WHAT OPTION ARE AVAILABLE. THANKS,JEFF. *AK (DOT NUMBER: F07D-G061 TIRESIZE: LT265/75R1)
