On the way back to buffalo missouri at approximately 4:30pm ( traveling 65mph), the right rear tire started to make a very loud winding sound and shake. I slowed down to approximately (55mph) and the tire blew out the sidewall, causing my truck to severely fish tail in the middle of a two lane road, narrowly missing on-coming traffic. On september 14th, 2017 i took my truck and blown out tire to jbc tire and automotive (authorized dealer of cooper tires). Josh moutrey was the manager on duty. I informed of the blow out. Josh and his mechanic checked the tire of any foreign debris, nails or cuts in the tire. After the inspection on the blow out and the other tires, josh stated that the tread on the three remaining tires had excessive wear (lf hi:5, low:4; rf hi:5, low:4; lr hi: 5, low:4).

Cooper ctstires 70,000 milestook my vehicle nissan armarda for tire rotation and brake inspectionmy alignment was off and tires had significant wear 3 places examined tires and all agreed their wassignificant wear and need replacement. My auto shop called coopers they said they'll replace 70% toward cost of new ones but remember these tires are only 9mos old i wanted them replaced at no charged. And wanted them to honor their tires. My tires are causing me to hydo plane in water, the steering is not stable ( heavy vibration on steering column with speeds over 60 mph) dispute having a new alignment their is coupling in tires and a blister on my rear tire left driver side. Concerned about safety butwas told tires are ok tires are at 832nds inside and 632nd outside these tires wont last me another six month at this rate and fell if i keep driving on them i'll have failure eventually and could have consequences.i only put 12,000 mi on them in 9mos. I spoke with coopers representative who was insensitive and was not responsive to my questioning about tires and safety. And said that's all we can do.the representative said he would have to see them to even consider replacement i said lets do that but he said i didn't have to because we agreed with the auto shop for 70%i said if their is a defective material in tire wouldn't you want to see them? he then gave me a run around and would not response to my questioning. So, i said why would i want to purchase another set of coopers when i'm treated without regards to my safety and families safety?as well as the quality of your producti said replace the tires would be the right thing to do they are 70,000 mi tires with over 50% wear and rising after 9mos. I only used 20% of the tire i said shouldn't i receive 80% back? he also noted that if a customer is disatisfied with our product that they could at anytime ask for replacement. I said that's what i'm asking for!!! he then said nothings wrong with tires just 70% .
