My 2 rear tires the side walls have started comping apart on my cooper discoverer a/t 275/55/r20 I have tried to take them back to where I have purchased them and they told me the warranty is past 2 days ago and they could not replace them so here I am with 2 tires and no vehicle to drive with 3 month old tires so I looked up to see about the recall and it is for the a/t 3 but not the a/t so I don't know what to do the tires only have 1200 miles on them

TRAVELING FL TURNPIKE IN PALM BEACH COUNTY. TYPICAL WEEK-LONG HEAVY RAIN IN MAY WITH STANDING WATER. DODGE RAM 1500 WITH GOODYEAR WRANGLER HP 275/60R20" TIRES. I WAS DRIVING APPROX 45 MPH DUE TO RAIN AND STANDING WATER IN A 65 MPH ZONE OF THE MIDDLE LANE WHEN THE TIRES LOST TRACTION AND I HYDROPLANED. THE TRUCK BEGAN TO FISHTAIL. BEING A PROFESSIONAL DRIVER OF A FIRE TRUCK I USED PROPER CORRECTIVE TECHNIQUES TO COMPENSATE AND AVOID ROLLOVER AND AVOIDED OTHER VEHICLES. I CRASHED INTO THE RIGHT SAFETY GUARD RAIL. CRASH CAUSED DAMAGE TO FRONT BUMPER AND BOTH FRONT/REAR 1/4 PANELS. AFTERWARDS I LOOKED UP THE REVIEWS OF THIS TIRE AND FOUND MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF INADEQUATE TRACTION DURING WET CONDITIONS AND SIMILAR EXPERIENCES.

THE CONTACT COASTED ONTO THE SHOULDER, INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND DISCOVERED THAT ONE SIDE OF THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE WAS SEPARATED FROM THE RIM. THE FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY THREAD FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 132,196.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE RAM 1500 WITH COOPER JETZON REVENGER (N/A) (245/70R17) TIRES, DOT NUMBER: TNHREU0807. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A FLOPPING SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHERE THE TIRE WAS REPLACED WITH THE SPARE. THE MECHANIC STATED THE TREAD HAD SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE. THE FRONT AND REAR PASSENGER SIDE AND THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRES ALSO EXPERIENCED TREAD SEPARATION. THE TIRES WERE REPLACED.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE RAM 1500 QUAD CAB LWB. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH OR GREATER, THE VEHICLE VIBRATES ROUGHLY. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THE FAILURE STEMS FROM THE VEHICLE'S TIRES. THE TIRE MANUFACTURER REBALANCED THE TIRES, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE DEALER SENT THE VEHICLE TO A DIFFERENT TIRE SHOP WHO WAS ALSO UNABLE TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE TIRES ARE AT FAULT, HOWEVER THE TIRE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEIR IS FAILURE WITHIN THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE ORIGINAL TIRES AND RIMS WERE TESTED SEPARATELY, THEY DID NOT EXHIBIT ANY FAILURES. THE TIRE INFORMATION WAS UNAVAILABLE, HOWEVER ALL BUT ONE OF THE TIRES SHARE THE SAME DOT NUMBER. THE CONTACT HAS THE REPAIR ORDERS. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 20,000.
I JUST BOUGHT A NEW 2005 DODGE MAGNUM 1500 RAM LONG BED FROM THE DEALER IN NOVEMBER 2005. AFTER THE SECOND DAY OF DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY I NOTICED THE TRUCK VIBRATED A LOT AT AROUND 65 MPH. I RETURNED THE TRUCK TO GET THE TIRES BALANCED AT THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT TIRES NEEDED NO BALANCING AND THE SHAKING WAS FIXED. THE NEXT DAY GOING TO WORK THE SHAKING STARTED AT AROUND 63 MPH AND I RETURNED TO THE DEALER AND TEST DROVE WITH MECHANIC AND THEY BALANCED THE TIRES. THIS TIME ONE TIRE WAS FOUND UNBALANCED AND WAS TOLD THAT THESE TRUCK SHAKE AT THOSE SPEEDS AND WHEN THERE IS LESS THAN 300 POUNDS ON THE BED. I MADE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT SO THAT THEY COULD DO MORE TESTS AND TEST DRIVE. SAME THING WAS SAID. THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL AND NOTHING COULD BE DONE AND THAT...
