I bought four yokohama tires lt285/75r16/d geo hts from americas tire store in riverside,ca ,,, in 2006 it was rim & tire package. Never had any issues with the tires until they past 30,000 miles ( there 60,000 mile tires) 8/21/2010 left my house to go pick up my daughter in orange county about half mile from getting on freeway I felt a thumping in the driver side steering tire, when I noticed a separation of the tread from cord in the form of a bubble.(lucky I did not get on the freeway) . Drove to americas tire store directly from there,, were they confirmed that the tread had separated, and replaced the tire very nice customer service.. 9/1/2010 was going to lax to pick up my other daughter I was on the 91 freeway going the speed limit when driver side rear tire lost all tread loosing no air pressure throwing the truck to the shoulder of the frwy. Lucky I had control of the steering wheel managed to get off the frwy in one piece but the damage to the bed of the truck is over $3,000. Now yokohama says that some how this is my fault,, I fail to understand as a consumer how this is my fault when I rely on professionals that work in this field to look out for me and others that just want safe tires to run on. I have the other two tires that are showing the same cracking that the other two tires that failed showed and will some how get them tested to determine whether this is defect or not.
