ALL FOUR OF MY TIRES HAVE HAD LEAKS SINCE NEW. HAD THEM CHECKED SEVERAL TIMES TO NO AVAIL. I THINK THAT MY TIGER PAWS ARE DEFECTIVE AND MAYBE DANGEROUS TO KEEP USING. I ONLY HAVE 32,000 MILES ON THEM. ALSO THEY HAVE BEEN DEVELOPING CRACKS ON THE SIDEWALLS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY 2003 CHEVY S10 THE ASSEMBLY THAT HOLDS THE SPARE TIRE UNDERNEATH OF THE VEHICLE DISENGAGED WHEN THE CABLE SNAPPED. THE TIRE BECAME WEDGED BETWEEN THE ROAD AND THE REAR BUMPER CAUSING MY VEHICLE TO FISHTAIL. NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED DESPITE THE TIRE BOUNCING ACROSS 4 LANES OF TRAFFIC AND DOWN A SIDE STREET WHERE IT CAME TO REST AGAINST A CURB. THE "PRIORITY" DEALERSHIP SAID THIS WAS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. THIS IS THE 3RD CASE I HAVE HEARD ABOUT THIS HAPPENING IN MY AREA. *TR

THE "FAILED" TIRE WAS ON THE FRONT, DRIVERS SIDE. SIMPLE HIGHWAY DRIVING AT 60 MPH (RT.1 N., DELAWARE), DRY CONDITIONS, 65 - 70 DEGREES TEMPERATURE. TIRES WERE RELIGIOUSLY 'ROTATED' AT 6500 - 7500 MILES. POINT 2. - TIRE LOST AIR, EVENTUAL "FLAT" DURING 60 MPH HIGHWAY DRIVE. THERE WAS NOT A WHOLE LOT OF "PULLING" INVOLVED. ATTENTION WAS GIVEN TO ME BY A "PASSING" DRIVER, UPON WHICH TIME I PULLED OFF TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY. POINT 3. - CHANGED THE "FAILED" TIRE WITH THE SPARE TIRE (SAME MODEL), EVENTUALLY REPLACED THE "SUSPECT" TIRE WITH A NEW SAME MODEL (ERGO, TWO NEW TIRES ON THE FRONT).INSPECTED THE THREE OTHER ORIGINAL TIRES AND NOTICED "DRY ROT" ON ALL...
