I purchased 4 big o big foot at tires in august 2003. In the four months between july 2004 and november 2004, i experienced 3 separate high-speed catastrophic blow-outs on 3 of the tires. In each case, i was traveling at highway speed (65 mph) with my family in the vehicle. The first was on a warm summer day, the second was on a moderate day, the third was at about 35 degrees. The first two blow-outs occurred on the front passenger side. The third was on the rear driver's side. After the replacement of each of the first two tires, the remaining three wheels were rotated.in each case, it was a struggle to maintain control of the vehicle, but in the third case (rear tire), the car skidded dangerously out of control as the rear end swayed back and forth. Had i not steered into the skid, i am certain the vehicle would have rolled over.the big o dealership replaced the tires each time, but insisted that the failures could only have been caused by encountering some road hazard which caused the tires to de-pressurize quickly, heat up and then blow. However, three high-speed blowouts in four months indicates not an isolated circumstance or coincidence, but a dangerous and potentially deadly pattern.
While driving at the posted speed limit one on my new tires delaminated and almost causing a fatal accident. After switching to the spare, about three hours later another tire on the opposite side did the same thing!!these tires must be defective and should be recalled.the tire shop said there was no visible damage to the tire.they are only 3 years old. I maintain them by driving the vehicle often and also just had the brakes checked and tires rotated by a licensed facility.

I had a tire sold by big o tire company on my dodge ram truck. When the truck was parked in my driveway the left front tire sidewall blew out. The truck hadn't been driven in 2 days and showed no signs of a problem on the last days it was driven. The initial explosion was deafening when the outer wall blew and then there was a second, a more quiet, deflation of the actual tire. Had this happened while being driven it could have been catastrophic. The company replaced the tire no questions asked and inspected all of the others but the nature of the failure has given myself concerns.*la
