There is not enough comparable history to draw a useful model-year comparison.

Counts are not adjusted for sales, age, mileage exposure or reporting. A lower count does not establish that a car is problem-free.

    When problems were reported

    Mileage at the reported incident

    Limited mileage data: 9 of 33 reports include usable mileage. There isn’t enough coverage to show a useful chart.

    NHTSA’s mileage field refers to the reported incident, not necessarily the filing date. This shows report counts, not the likelihood of a failure.

    AFTER SHIPPING TIRE AND ESTIMATES AND PHOTOS OF THE DAMAGES AS REQUIRED BY FIRESTONE, MY CLAIM WAS DENIED , THEIR REASON WAS: FAILURE DUE TO UNDER INFLATION. BECAUSE WE TRAVEL A LOT WITH OUR FIFTH WHEEL CAMPER, I REGULARLY CHECK AND KEEP MY TIRES INFLATED AT THE MANUFACTURE'S RECOMMED (75LBS) OF AIR PRESSURE.FIRESTONE HAS THE TIRE IN QUESTION AND WILL SEND IT BACK TO ME AT MY ADDITIONAL EXPENSE. (REF. NO. 028739) THE OTHER TWO TIRES THAT BLEW OUT HAD JUST OVER 36000 MILES. THEY WERE ALSO ON THE REAR OF THE TRUCK. I DID NOT FILE ON THESE TWO BECAUSE THEY CAUSED NO DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. *AK (DOT NUMBER: VNW81XL079 TIRESIZE: 26575R16)
