14. Filed Aug 16, 2000Pompano Beach FL, FLTires

    I HAD THESE 16 INCH WILDERNESS TIRES ON MY LAST SUBURBAN. A YEAR AGO I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM A TRIP WHEN WE HAD TO CHANGE THE TIRE. IT WAS RIDING ROUGH AND UNEVEN. AFTER TAKING OFF THE TIRE, I COULD SEE THAT IT WAS COMING APART. WE WERE FORTUNATE IT DIDN'T BLOW OUT. NOW I HAVE THIS SAME TIRE ON MY NEW VEHICLE. I WANTED THEM REPLACED BUT THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM. I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT I HAD 16 INCH WILDERNESS TIRES ON MY LAST SUBURBAN AND THAT ONE CAME APART. I DO NOT HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THESE TIRES AND THINK THE MATTER SHOULD BE MORE CLOSELY INVESTIGATED.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 16 INCH )
