Incident date: tuesday, october 23, 2012 approximately 1pm temperature: approximately 55 degrees road condition: dry tires: goodyear assurance fuel max installed: september 23, 2009 miles on tires at time of incident: 49,051 estimated tread life left: 4/32 number of persons in vehicle: 2 adults, 3 children while on a local shopping trip including travel on an interstate highway the right rear tire of the vehicle blew out. We had entered the interstate highway and had traveled about 5 miles. While passing a semi and in the left lane of the highway, at 70 MPH, the right rear tire blew out. The vehicle started to vibrate and the tire was slapping the underside of the fender. Control of the vehicle was maintained and the vehicle was slowed down and moved to the center median. When traffic cleared, the vehicle was moved safely to the right shoulder of the highway. After exiting the vehicle, inspection of the right rear tire revealed a total blow out. The other members exited the vehicle and remained in the grass away from the vehicle while the tire was changed. When the tire was changed we continued to the next exit and used back roads to return home. New tires were purchased on tuesday, oct 23, 2012. The tire specialist indicated that the probable cause of the blow out was hitting a pot hole.
While driving on the freeway, rear toyo tire blew out. Required replacing 2 tires, the one blow out and another in front that had tread separation issues identified by tire mechanic. Upon return from trip, taken back to installation dealer and they contacted toyo who offered a $30 refund on each. Since the original purchase was for 4 tires, the two remaining tires were also at risk for similar blow out. Toyo did not want to offer refund unless proof of tire rotation was provided. The issue was ultimately with a faulty blow-out (3 tire dealers stated that this was not a wear-and-tear issue but a defect) and not a matter of getting refund yet toyo's focus was on proving that the tires were not maintained rather than dealing with an obviously dangerous product out in the market.
Horrible, horrible, horrible! I had done a lot of research on what type of used mini van was the best on the market. Honda kept popping up, so I went and purchased a 2006 honda odyssey touring. I loved it until I got a flat tire. I took it to discount tire store (the same place we took our toyota). That is where we informed that we have the pax tire system. From there it's been a disaster! I've called michelin and the honda dealership, nobody will do anything to make this situation right! It should be disclosed to buyers before they purchase a car with this tire system on it. The tires cost 300$ a piece and I was informed by michelin that they only last up to 36k miles. The tires that I have right now, still should have 50% of their life, however my rear tire now has a "bubble" on it. It is not safe to drive! Shame on honda and michelin for not doing the right thing! I will never purchase another honda or michelin tire!
While driving on I-81. I heard a brief, unusual sound inside my honda odyssey, then the left rear tire suffered an immediate catastrophic failure. The tire tread just peeled off the tire. Fortunately the tire did not deflate. I was able to safely park off the interstate and call for assistance. The van sustained significant body damage from the tire thread debris. I was towed to the nearest honda dealer. They had to replace both rear tires with another brand because they did not sell toyo and it was after 6 p.m. They also were able to make the van safe for highway travel by removing broken body parts and securing other body components that allowed me to continue my journey back home without any further incidents.....updated 05/23/12 *bf updated 06/06/2012 *js
I purchased a set of 4 toyo versado lx tires about 3 years ago. In the last month, one tire completely disintegrated on the interstate and we were lucky to keep control! The outer tread completely peeled off like you see from 18-wheelers. Just a few weeks later, we had terrible vibration from the front end. Took car to honda dealer who determined another of the tires was completely defective. The treads were separating from the inside, and the tire was effectively square. All of the tires had plenty of wear left.
Tl* the contact owns a 2006 honda odyssey equipped with michelin energy lx4 tires(na), size 235/70r17. The dot number was not available. While having routine maintenance performed at an authorized dealer, the contact was informed that he would need to have all four tires replaced due to excessive tread wear. The authorized dealer replaced the tires with the same type of tires that were originally on the vehicle. Approximately 25,000 miles later, the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for routine maintenance. He was informed again that all four tires were exhibiting tread wear and would need to be replaced. The dealer replaced the front tires, but not the rear. The failure mileage was 27,000 and the current mileage was 69,000.
Tl*the contact owns a 2006 honda odyssey. The contact stated that the tires wore out after 16,000 miles. The replacement tires, dueler ht 235/65/r16 (na) dot number d684, failed after 22,000 miles. The vehicle was taken to the tire center where the tires were purchased and the contact was informed that the tire wear was caused by the design of the vehicle. The vehicle had not been inspected at the dealership at the time of the complaint. The VIN was unavailable when the complaint was filed. The current and failure mileages were approximately 38,000.
Our 2006 honda odyssey touring edition minivan came standard-equipped with michelin pax "run-flat" tires (energy lx4, 235/710r460a 104t). These tires pose a serious safety threat because of ultra-premature tread wear, and the fact that a different type of tire cannot be used on the vehicle. It wasn't until we nearly slid our vehicle off the road that we realized our tires were nearly bald after only 17 thousand miles. Honda and michelin claim that "pax system tires should provide treadlife comparable to a corresponding traditional michelin tire," but this is clearly a misrepresentation as thousands of complaints about the premature tread life of these tires can be found on the internet. The problem cannot be solved by simply installing different tires because the pax tire is required equipment on the 2006 honda odyssey touring edition minivan! Honda itself states that using a different tire will likely void the vehicle warranty. The problem is compounded by the fact that replacing these tires is unusually expensive (about $1,300.00 usd to replace all four) so people postpone replacing their pax tires to avoid paying the excessive cost, exposing themselves and others to a serious road hazard. I implore you to take action to resolve this dangerous problem. Important: it is not possible to properly enter the tire specifications for this tire on your web site due to its unusual specification format. The proper specification for the tire is 235/710r460a 104t. The "a" in 460a signifies that these tires feature "asymmetric" beads in which the outside bead (450 mm) and inside bead (470 mm) are actually different diameters.
Complaint with michelin pax system run-flat technology: 235-710r 460a 104t. I have to replace the tires a 2nd time in only 45k miles. They wear too fast. Extremely expensive. I was never told by honda I would have these issues. I have no other options but to purchase the same tires again. Something needs to be done by either honda or michelin. I know I am not alone with this issue.
