I purchased a new set of continental tires from colony tire located in raleigh nc in late 2012 early 2014. I drive a f-350 sd. In august 2013 I was traveling with my son on nc I 40 e bound around 400 ml marker when 1 of the tires blew out. I didn't think much of it, 1st blow out on that truck in 8 yrs. The 2 continental tire blew out december 12th 2013 on I 40 e bound also near 411 mile marker. At that time I was thinking what are the odds but again things happen. The third tire blew out while traveling to greenville sc. That was in february 20, 2014. I didn't know what to think. That was the third tire that blew in that same set. I have the last 2. I went to turnkey tire service to inquire about the continental tires. It was at that time that he showed me how to read the dot number on the tire. We learned at that time that the tire were manufactured in april 2005 and was sold in 2013. I contact continental tire and offered them the opportunity to come examined the tires that I had left and they declined. They did want me to send them the remaining 2 tires that I had but I didn't think I should get rid of the only two tires that link me and these tires to continental tire. Can you please let me know what I can or should do at this point. When I went into colony tire, they had to order those tires. I do not know where they ordered them from but it took a few days to get in.

I own a 2006 ford f-350 4x4 short bed crew cab pickup truck. I am the original owner and no modifications have ever been made. I have kept the vehicle in good mechanical shape, kept the tires inflated to recommended levels, and kept the tires balanced and rotated. The vehicle has always experienced a severe steering oscillation whenever the vehicle is traveling over 50 MPH and hits a small bump on the highway. The oscillation is most severe if the bump is hit while in a left turn. When this occurs, I break until speed is reduced to about 30 MPH to 40 MPH and the oscillation stops. When this oscillation occurs, the vehicle has limited steering control. It generally travels in a straight direction but does not respond well to steering wheel input until the oscillation is dampened. The vehicle is difficult and in some cases impossible to control. This oscillation has occurred numerous times. In the case today, this oscillation was so severe that it has caused the vehicle to swerve into the opposing traffic lane. I nearly had a head on collision, the opposing vehicle moved over to the shoulder to allow me to pass. These oscillations have occurred with both the original continental lt275/70r18 tires and also the replacement michelin lt275/70r18 tires. Tires pressures have been maintained at 65 psi front and 75 psi rear as recommended by the owner's manual.
