Within 43 days of purchasing cooper grand touring CS5 tires for my 1997 Buick Century, one developed a large sidewall bulge. The retailer forced me to buy another new tire for $72. And cooper refused to pay for it! I have been driving cars for 40 years an never had a new tire or any tire develop a sidewall bulge. I had a spirited conversation with a cooper rep and she got very rude with me. They had one recall for the same problem and never fixed the problem obviously. Please help!
Driving on I-95 southbound when I experienced a catastrophic tread separation to my driver's side rear tire. I was able to get my vehicle to the side of the road and signal help. Fortunately, I escaped this failure uninjured.
Right front Firestone tire blew out while driving, Firestone dealer replaced the tire free of charge, upon furher inspection the consumer found one of the rims was bent, the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was determined that all four rims were bent, the consumer belives this is what may have caused the blowout (Firestone, 440 P205/70115).
