I had 4 delta fortune tires on my 1997 Sunfire. 2 of which I replaced in April, 2009 for tire separation. I replaced the third tire in early Sept. 2009 again for separation and today the forth tire separated while driving causing extensive damage to right-rear quarter panel and tail-light.

Tires completey exploded and eventually replaced the rims, and since the third time I have not had any problems with the tires. I had to have a complete set of brakes put on, which I had to pay for. I am now having to face paying over $1000 for a new transmission, the headlights had problems not even a month after I got the car. The radiator had a whole in it from a screw that came loose from under the hood and it was shot back up into the radiator, they goodwilled this.( dot number: )
