I purchased a new set of pirelli tires for my 2010 ford expedition in feb. 2015 & they cost me $1,800.00. I thought i was paying for a a better set of tires. In aug.,6 mth. Later, my family went on a trip to nc in the expedition & on our way homemy front passenger tire completely came apart from the inside out on the interstate. My tire sensor light had come on maybe 10 minutes at most prior to the tire exploding, we should've had time to make it to a gas station. I brought my car tosarasota ford the next day & was told i should have immediately put a spare on my car & brought the tire in because most likely the valve stem was leaking & they would've covered the tire. Jimmy said that i ruined the tire because of driving on it with low tire pressure.i paid the $225.because i still had a spare tire on my car & i wasn't comfortable with it & i wasn't getting anywhere trying to tell him that ididn't believe you can be given a 10 min.warning to get your tire off the road before it just disintegrates. I'm not sure if it would've gone differently if i'd been a guy! i've been dealing with sarasota ford a long time & they have all of my service log records. I get my oil changed every 3,000 mi , my tires rotated every other oil change & the records will show that i take care of any needs that my car has, i don't ignore them as he would imply. I'm extremely disappointed in sarasota ford for being so quick to blame me for this tire failure & i'm obviously not happy with perelli tire either. I am very thankfulwe were just very inconvenienced & no one was hurt. Luckily there are many other choices for tires & tire companies for the rest of our vehicles.
