LT275/70R18 Firestone E Transforce HT2 Upon seeing warning lamp for low air second time, tire was taken to independent shop for inspection and repair. Tech stated tire (23000 miles) could not be repaired because of a safety issue due to sidewall seperation defect with no sign of impact or run flat damage. The rubber was soft and thin. Could have been catastrophic had it blown out on highway. I purchased a replacement. When I took the tire to a Firestone retail store, the manager said "It's hard to tell what happened to it" obviously denying a defect and refered Me to "corporate" to try and get credit. I told him I was concerned about the other three tires because they have the same batch number. DOT VN15 TH7 5123. He stated They would do a visual inspection nothing else. I have the tire if needed for inspection. I do not feel safe driving on the other tires. This lot should be recalled.

LT285/60R20 with 12,700 miles. I had just left the parking lot at the Cumberland YMCA and was merging into traffic on [XXX] westbound in Cumberland Md., accelerating to the speed limit (55MPH) when I began hearing a noise. I then saw a red warning light on the dashboard indicating 0 tire pressure on the left rear tire. Looking in the outside rear view mirror I could see the tire was flat and the truck was basically riding on the rim (thus the noise). To my knowledge I did not hit any debris or potholes. I had children in the back seat. Fortunately at the low speed no one was in danger. I need to replace the tire (actually I will replace all 4 as I have no trust in Firestone) so I don't know about the availability for inspection but I will take photos. The local police were called to help ensure personal safety while the spare tire was mounted. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
