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.

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...
