Consumer Description

THE TIRE HAS A CRACK ALL THE WAY AROUND THE TIRE EDGE WHERE THE FLAT MEETS THE SIDE. NOW THE TIRE WON'T HOLD AIR. THE GROOVES OF THE TREAD ARE STILL 3/16 OF AN INCH DEEP SO THERE ISN'T THAT MUCH WEAR TO THE TIRE. WE DIDN'T TAKE IT TO A FIRESTONE DEALER BECAUSE WE KNOW THIS PARTICULAR TIRE ISN'T ON THE RECALL LIST THAT WE KNOW OF. YOU CAN SEE THE STEEL BELT. WHAT SHOULD WE DO IN THIS SITUATION? THIS DEFINATELY LOOKS LIKE MANUFACTURERS DEFECT.*AK
