THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED AFTER A COMMUTE HOME FROM WORK. MY WIFE NOTICED A BULGE IN THE KUHMO TIRE ON HER DRIVER'S SIDE REAR. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE TIRE AT NO COST. THIS HAPPENED AT ROUGHLY 2000 MILES. THE SECOND INCIDENT OCCURRED ON THE COMMUTE HOME FROM WORK AS WELL. THIS TIME THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT TIRE EXPLODED AT 55 MPH SENDING MY WIFE INTO A PANIC STATE AS SHE ATTEMPTED TO SLOW THE VEHICLE SAFELY. THIS OCCURRED AT ROUGHLY 4400 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP HAD TO REPLACE THE RIM AND TIRE AS THE EXPLOSION RUINED BOTH. THE THIRD INCIDENT OCCURRED TODAY AS SHE GOT OUT OF HER CAR AT WORK SHE NOTICED THE MOST RECENTLY REPLACED TIRE HAD A HUGE BULGE IN THE SIDE WALL AGAIN. SO I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO INFORMED ME THERE WAS NOTHING MORE THEY COULD DO. KUHMO AND CHRYSLER HAVE REFUSED TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE AND WE WERE FORCED TO SPEND $700.00 ON NEW TIRES SO WE COULD MAKE A FAMILY TRIP THIS MEMORIAL DAY. WE PLAN TO SEEK LEGAL ADVICE ON THIS ISSUE AND FEEL THAT NEITHER CHRYSLER OR KUHMO TAKE SAFETY SERIOUSLY. *TR
