2007 Honda Accord Tires & Wheels Problems

I WAS DRIVING REGULARLY AT THE NORMAL SPEED LIMIT AND HIT A HUGE POTHOLE MORE LIKE A CRATER AND NOW I IMMEDIATELY GOT A FLAT TIRE ON WHICH IS A BRAND NEW TIRE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS

BOUGHT USED 2007 ACCORD FROM DEALER THAT HAD PUT ON NEW YOKOHAMA AVID ASCENT TIRES MFR'D IN 2015 (CC2084P2715, CC2084P0815, P205/60R16 91T). TWO YRS AND 25K MILES LATER, ONE TIRE WENT FLAT AND COULDN'T BE REPAIRED. FIGURED JUST RAN OVER SOMETHING AND REPLACED. NOW, 4 YRS AND 45K MILES LATER ANOTHER TIRE IS SPLITTING APART ALONG THE EDGE OF THE TREAD AND SIDEWALL, WITH THE OTHER TWO STARTING TO SHOW SIMILAR BUT LESS SEPARATION. TIRE HAS 80,000 MI WARRANTY YET APPEARS TO BE UNSAFE. ATTACHING A PHOTO. WILL TAKE IT TO A TIRE DEALER WHO SELLS YOKOHAMA AND SEE IF THEY CAN HELP IN ANYWAY.

3 OF 4 TIRES HAVE DEVELOPED BULGES IN THE SIDEWALL WITH NO ROAD HAZARD DAMAGE INVOLVED. VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN MOTION QUITE SOME TIME BEFORE THEY WERE NOTICED. THEY WERE PURCHASED AT NTB, WHO REFUSE TO EXCEPT ANYTHING OTHER THEN I MUST'VE HIT SOMETHING

SUMI TOUR PLUS LST R84MFMMR2417 1 215/50R17 91V, 70,0 BLOW OUT OCCURRED AT 70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. TIRE HAD < 15K MILES ON IT. DRIVING 2007 HONDA ACCORD.

AEOLUS STEERING ACEXAS AU02 TIRE DEVELOPED THREE BULGES IN THE SIDEWALL AFTER 8K MILES. TIRE WAS MAINTAINED AND DID NOT RUN FLAT OR WAS IN AN ACCIDENT OR STRUCK ANY OBJECT.

I OWN A 2007 HONDA ACCORD AND WITHIN THE PAST TWO YEARS I'VE REPLACED THE DRIVER FRONT TIRE TWICE. THE FIRST TIME I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT, THE SECOND TIME REPLACING IT , IT GOT ME THINKING, "OK, WHAT'S GOING ON AND WHY IS IT ONLY THIS TIRE I NEED TO REPLACE AGAIN?" I'M THINKING THERE IS AN ALIGNMENT ISSUE? WE NEED THIS PROBLEM RESOLVED BECAUSE I CAN NOT KEEP BUYING TIRES EVERY YEAR. WE DON'T GO ON LONG TRIPS, WE STAY IN OUR HOME TOWN SO I KNOW IT'S NOT JUST NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. SOMETHING IS WRONG, WHICH IS WHY I AM REPORTING THIS PROBLEM. BELOW I PROVIDED TWO PICTURES. ONE BAD TIRE AND THE OTHER GOOD TIRE. (YOU CAN CLEARLY TELL WHICH ONE IS THE BAD TIRE-DRIVER SIDE TIRE) PLEASE FOLLOW UP WITH ME ABOUT THIS ISSUE. GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I HAVE HAD THREE COOPER TIRES FAIL ALL CS4 MODELS. THE COMPLAINT IS ALL THE SAME, THE TIRE DEVELOPS A SIDE WALL LEAK AND CRACKS LEADING TO LOW PRESSURE AND TIRE FAILURE. EACH ONE FAILED AT 17K,15K & 22K MILES. IN EACH INSTANCE THE TIRE WAS REPLACED WITH THE SAME MODEL CS4 COOPER TIRE AND REPEATS THE SAME PROBLEM. EACH ONE WAS ON THE FRONT OF THE CAR AND THE OTHER TIRES WHICH ARE NON COOPER TIRES DO NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE AND I WILL NO LONGER BUY COOPER TIRES.

BOTH TIRES LASTED APPROX 15-17K MILES BEFORE FAILING AND APPROX 2 YEARS IN EACH CASE. ONE WAS REPLACED BY THE TIRE DEALER ONLY BECAUSE I HAD BOUGHT THE TIRE PROTECTION POLICY AND THE OTHER WAS NO LONGER COVERED AS REPLACEMENTS ARE NO LONGER COVERED AFTER 12K OR 1 YR. BOTH TIRES COULD NOT BE REPAIRED AS THE SIDEWALL HAS FAILED. *TR
