I returned to Discount Tire in Tucson (Speedway) to ask for a recall check after I learned of the 2021 recall on similar Continental tires for sidewall failure. Discount tire reimbursed one tire. I complained to agent Matthew Harby that the other two tires were dangerous because they showed the same sidewall defect on the hot day. He denied my request for replacement if the remaining two Continental tires because there was no open recall on these. I told I him I was worried about a catastrophic failure in normal operation. I then resumed driving. The weather cooled off and until October the two tires behaved normally again.. On 10/30 about 630pm I was dri ong on I10 and experienced catastrophic tire failure in the outside lane speed approx 65mph. I was fortunate to be able to pull over without losing control but the…”

“MICHELIN "HYDROEDGE" XSE TIRES. 90K MILE WARRANTY. AFTER 30K MILES THERE ARE DEEP DANGEROUS SEPERATIONS IN THE TREAD PATTERN ON THE SHOULDER AT EVERY SINGLE TREAD LOOP ON ALL 4 TIRES.. REPORTS SAY TIRES EXPLODE FORM LOSS OF INTERNAL INTEGRITY AND PEOPLE HAVE DIED IN ACCIDENTS CAUSED FROM THESE BLOWOUTS. . WEB SEARCH CONFIRMS THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS AND BLOWOUTS. TIRE SHOLD BE ON A SAFETY RECALL LIST BUT THEY ARE NOT. TIRES WERE SO DEFECTIVE THAT MICHELIN HAD TO STOP PRODUCTION. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR BLOWOUTS. WHEN WILL MICHELIN BE FORCED TO RECALL THESE TIRES BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE DIES FROM A BLOW OUT???? WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO FILL OUT THE REST OF THIS FORM, THE FORM WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO ENTER THE NAME FOR A TIRE LINE, "HYDROEDGE" XSE AND THE FACT THAT ALL FOUR (4) TIRES HAVE THE SAME DEFECT. ALSO TWO OF MY TIRES DO NOT HAVE ANY DATE STAMP IN THE DOT # AREA. HOW COULD THIS BE?????”
