While at the body shop the left front tire tread was also found to be ready to peel off. Six months later, both of the rear tires were found in the same condition and to be replaced.

I will get the rest of the totals of repairs. I have to get them from my daughter. The airbags burst open on her after she had a blow out. She was severly burned with chemical in the bags. Her eye was damaged. She lost time from her job, 4 teeth were damaged. Thank god there wasn't any traffic. The trama she went through was awful. And there's no telling if her face will be scarred. She is 20 and trying to make it on her own. Shouldn't car dealers know if they are selling recalls. Shouldn't the mazda dealer know about this. We took it to a mazda dealer first. The price of repair is outrageous. What is the law on recalls.

The vehicle was purchased in march 29, 2000 with 3,636 miles on it. With less than 20k miles, the tread separated on the left front tire on friday, december 22, 2000. On february 9, 2001, I took the vehicle in to be serviced, including a tire rotation and balance, 4-wheel alignment. When I went to pick up the car, the right front tire tread had separated and the technician had placed the spare on the vehicle and advised that I needed a new tire. When I told him it was the second tire in less than a year of ownership, he said I needed to contact the manufacturer. On friday, august 10, 2001, I had a third of the original tires tread separate on the left front side just 10k miles after my alignment. No one seems to know what is causing the tires to wear excessively on the inside and separate. When I took the car in to replace that tire, the tire dealer informed me that the last of the original tires was wearing and very susceptible to the same type of tread separation. By the end of the day tomorrow, I will have spent over $600 to purchase new tires for a vehicle that has less than 31k miles on it. Please help! (tiresize: 215/50r17)
