I purchased a used volvo with a virtually new set of firewhawk tires on it. After driving it for about 3 months, i noticed one of the front tires had developed a good sized bulge on the side wall. This was about a year ago. I was concerned and e-mailed the consumer division of firestone about the problem. I described the bulge and gave dimensions including diameter (approximately 2 inches) and the height of the buldge (about 1/2 inch). I asked if it was dangerous to continue driving on this tire and who was responsinble for replacement. I received no reply from firestone. Eventually the buldge ruptured while i was driving at about 65 mph on an expressway. Fortunatelly, the tire did not deflate all at once, allowing me to drive a little distance and pull off the road.i replaced the tire with the same brand and size. About 8 months later, i noticed a similar bulge on the sidewall of the rear tire. I replaced it immediately with another manufacturer's tire. The first defective tire was disposed by the shop that replaced it. However, i still have the other defective tire. After hearing the recent problems with firestone tires, i again contacted firestone. It took a few weeks, but this time, they did respond. They told me they could not handle my problem by e-mail and gave me an 800 number to call. I have not yet called this number.( dot number: w2v9 jbb tire size: p195 60r15 )
