Kumho solus KH16 tires came on my new 2015 Dodge Caravan. Only 21000 miles later, 3 of the 4 tires had pieces of tread chucking off. Two of the tires appear to have splitting in the rim area as if the casing is separating. I was 220 miles from home on christmas vacation when I had all four tires replaced. My extended family has 2 Caravan with the same kumho tires and all show the same issues. The tire dealer noted the tires were manufactured in 2014 (P225/65 R17 H100, cab502C, 0261971, 011341sw). After reading other tire reviews it appears there are many safety and wear issues with this tire brand. I could not locate an authorized kumho dealer in the amelia island area the day after christmas but did not care as I would never have this brand on any car I owned after this experience. Really, how can this tire be sold at all?

In the act of turning into a parking lot, I hit the curb on the front passenger side and heard a loud bang. As I continued, I knew immediately that I had a flat and pulled into a parking spot. There was a side wall blow out very large on that front tire. Had to replace the tire on a car that we have owned new for only 6 months and only had 6,000 miles on. I was going very slow as I turned and when I went back to look at the curb it was rounded and not sharp. Took a photo of it because it shocked me. Aaa came and towed the car to a dealer and after reading some shocking reports about the takahoma tires that we have on our car decided to replace it with another brand. My concern is the safety of the other 3 tires as we continue driving this car.

My vehicle was struck in the drivers side door by another vehicle. The entire side of the van was affected, from the wheels to the bumpers. I feel the vehicle that struck my van was doing at least 20 mph at the time of impact and the side impact air bags did not deploy. In my research I have found that impacts from 8 to 18 mph should cause these side air bags to deploy. This is very concerning for myself and the safety of others with these types of vehicles. Chrysler had an "independent" investigator inspect the van before any repairs were completed. I was not asked to be present at the time of the inspection or given a copy of the report. I will be attempting to contact the "independent" investigator for a copy of the report but don't feel that I will have much luck. There were four children in the van along with my spouse when the accident happened and thankfully no critical injuries were sustained. I would like to know if the air bags were supposed to work. The vehicle is currently being repaired at the dealership I purchased it at.
