Read complaints for FIRESTONE TRANSFORCE HT (Unknown)


While driving a dodge ram 2500, without any load and at a speed of 35 mph on a straight smooth road the rear right tire burst for no apparent reason. A local firestone dealer believes that the tire was punctured and at a low pressure. I do not believe that as a visual inspection prior to the trip which resulted in the blowout did not indicate a low pressure.

On june 7, 2014, we were driving our 2005 chevy silverado hd westbound through kansas on i70. A strong vibration forced us to exit. The automotive technician identified that the driver's side front tire had slipped a belt. We purchased a new tire (no firestone available). All tires were rotated and balanced. In august 2014, a similar vibration was noticed. On august 21, 2014, after an extensive, multi-point inspection, it was determined that the driver's rear tire had slipped a belt. Replacement necessary. Of the remaining two firestone tires, one appears to be from the same batch (corresponding dot#) as the driver's rear tire that was just removed. Replacement recommended. The passenger front tire appears to be from a different batch, but will be replaced. (unfortunately, we have not been unable to locate a record of the dot# from the tire replaced in june 2014.) firestone has initially denied replacement/compensation to the automotive business performing the repairs.

The contact owns a 2007 dodge ram 1500 equipped with firestone transforce ht tires, size: lt265/70r17 (na). While driving approximately 55 mph, the rear passenger side tire blew out without warning or impact. The contact pulled over and parked the vehicle. Roadside assistance replaced the tire with a spare. The tires were replacement tires. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vin was not available. The approximate vehicle failure mileage was 93,000 and the approximate tire failure mileage was 15,000. The vin and dot number were not available.

While driving my 2012 dodge ram 2500 on a four lane highway the front right firestone transforce tire blew out. The blow out was immediate and unexpected. The truck careened from median to median barely missing another vehicle until i was finally able to bring it under control. I am a very experienced driver, knew not to hit the brakes and believe that a less experienced person may have had a worse outcome. I do have pictures.

The contact owns a 2016 ram 2500 equipped with firestone transforce ht tires, size: lt275/70r18. The contact stated that the rear tires had a required pressure of 80 psi, and the front tires required a pressure of 65 psi. The contact stated that the rear driver and passenger side tires exceeded the required psi, which caused them to move up and down when driving. While driving approximately 63 mph and applying the brake pedal, the vehicle was unstable. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the vehicle was functioning as designed. The approximate vehicle failure mileage was 12,600 and the tire failure mileage was unknown.
