MY WIFE WAS DRIVING MY 2005 GMC YUKON DENALI XL WHEN BOTH THE PASSENGER TIRES WENT FLAT. WE PUT AIR IN THE TIRES AND DROVE HOME. THE NEXT MORNING ONLY THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE WAS FLAT SO I USED MY COMPRESSOR TO AIR THE TIRE UP AND WENT TO FIRESTONE TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. WHEN FIRESTONE REMOVED THE TIRE AND LOOKED AT IT, THEY FOUND MULTIPLE SPLIT ON THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE. SO I HAD THEM CHECK ALL THE TIRES AND EACH ONE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS. I HAVE REPLACED ALL FOUR TIRES NOW BUT SOMEONE HAS SOLD A BAD TIRE AND I WANT THEM RECALLED AND ALSO MY MONEY BACK. *TR
