The replacement tires are again "flacking/peeling." the dealer tells me that we will have to replace them with the same tires. They also tell me that this a reoccurring problem with this brand of tires.my background is that of an executive in the oe and aftermarket automotive and heavy truck industry. My employers manufactured foundation brakes, brake chambers and ride control. I know an unsafe situation when i see one and this one is not safe. I was involved in a major safety recall on ride control and know what it can cost a company to not recognize what their potential liability can be.

Oem hankook tires on 2017 ford explorer: with less than 15,000 miles on my 2017 explorer, it began to hydroplane at much lower speeds than when new. The tires are oem, hankook, ventus s1 noble.i took the car to fugate ford, who said they recently processed two other vehicles with bad hankook tires. On closer inspection with doug at fugate, you could see the tire tread was ripping away from itself all the way around the tire.fugate took pictures and phoned hankook. Fugate called me to say that because the tires had 6/32 tread remaining, they would not process the claim. Hankook needed the tread wear to be 4/32 or less.in my view, that's ridiculous... These hankook tires are defective and unsafe, whether at 6/32 or 4/32.today, i had all four defective tires replaced.

2018 volkswagen gti s.was actually leaving my house on the way to the dealer for an unrelated issue. As i was leaving my house, driving at like 10-15 mph on my street. My tpms light comes on saying i have low pressure. I stop immediately to check to see. My rear driver tire had a huge sidewall bulge and you could see the bead sitting on the rim lip. This was within less the 400 miles of the vehicle being on the road. I had not hit any potholes or anything just smooth pavement went it happened(or ever). I put the spare and continued to the dealer. It was replaced with a new tire. But i feel this tire brand is a safety concern. I have the same tires on my 2017 ford explorer and they are already worn down at 15000 miles. Hankook ventus tires are garbage and def a safety concern.
