PURCHASED A 9000 LB. MOTORHOME EQUIPPED WITH NEW "AUTOGUARD" LT 225-75R16 TIRES INSTALLED IN 2016. WHILE DRIVING THE INTERSTATE IN IDAHO,NOTICED A ROUGH RIDE, ATTRIBUTED TO TO THE FACT THAT THEY WERE PAVING THE HIGHWAY REQUIRING FREQUENT STOPS. PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY FOR FUEL AND DISCOVERED AN OUTSIDE DUAL WORN THRU THE STEEL BELTS ON ONE AREA OF THE TIRE. THE TIRE DEALER DISCOVERED THAT TWO ADDITIONAL REAR TIRES WERE WORN IN A SIMILAR MANNER, ONE WORN 360 DEGREES BUT ONLY ON ONE SIDE OF THE TIRE THE OTHER SIDE STILL HAD TREAD {VISIBLE IN THE PHOTOS}THE OTHER THREE TIRES WERE NOT ABNORMALLY WORN - INTACT. THESE TIRES HAD BEEN CHECKED FOR CONDITION THAT MORNINGS DEPARTURE. THESE TIRES WERE THREE YEARS OLD AS VERIFIED BY THE TIRE DEALER REPLACING THEM, HIS DIAGNOSIS WAS TREAD SEPARATION. ALL SIX TIRES WERE REPLACED AS A RESULT OF THIS NEAR DISASTER. THE ESTIMATED MILES DRIVEN ON THESE TIRES IS 2186, THE REPLACEMENT TIRES NOW HAVE 1664 MILES ON THEM AND ARE VISIBLY NEW. OBVIOUSLY, A 50% FAILURE RATE{3 OUT OF 6 TIRES} WITH SO LITTLE USE INDICATES THAT THESE TIRES ARE DANGEROUS AND SHOULD NOT BE SOLD IN THIS COUNTRY. ONLY TIMING AND LUCK PREVENTED A PERHAPS FATAL ACCIDENT IN THIS CASE. I AM COMPELLED TO BRING THIS TO YOUR ATTENTION AND EXPECT ACTION ON YOUR PART. OBVIOUSLY, SINCE THE MANUFACTURER, BEIJING CAPITAL TIRE COMPANY., IS HEADQUARTERED IN CHINA I HAVE NO WAY TO OBTAIN COMPENSATION OR REDRESS FOR MY EXPERIENCE, HOW MANY OTHERS ARE GOING TO BE EXPOSED TO AN EVEN WORSE SITUATION? I WILL STAY INFORMED, EXPECTING THE WORST.

CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT DISENGAGE AT APPROX. 70 MPH WHEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY.

AFTER APPROX. 15 MINUTES AND A VERY FEARFUL RIDE, I WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE FREEWAY AND BRING THE VAN TO A STOP IN A LARGE PARKING LOT. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO DO SO BY APPLYING EXTREME PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES AND PRAYING THAT THEY WOULD NOT FAIL. I QUICKLY TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND PUT THE VAN IN PARK.
