On 9/28, I had sidewall blow out on motor home.xrv235/80r22.5 and on 10/29 1200 miles later had the same thing happen causing damage of 705 dollars to fierglass fender. Both tires carried man pressure according to sidewall of 100psi. I talked to a mich rep and she sounded up beat about taking care of some of the cost. She had said the max pressure should be 10 lbs higher , but I was never notified of this . The tires were 31/2 yrs old with 38k miles/ after an inspection, someone called me and ne said no help and really won't listen to me.
