NHTSA complaint 1000859

AT 42,039 MILES ON A 2011 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN MY WIFE EXPERIENCED A SUSPICIOUS BLOWOUT ON A 225/65X17 MICHELIN ENERGY SAVER A/S TIRE WITH A 100T RATING. THE DOT # IS: M33T 00KX 1711. THIS IS A 65,000 MILE TIRE. NO FOREIGN OBJECTS WERE STRUCK. THE AIR PRESSURE, TIRE ROTATIONS, AND ALIGNMENTS WERE DONE IN A TIMELY FASHION. I NO LONGER FELT SAFE ON THESE TIRES AND REPLACED ALL 4 WITH ANOTHER BRAND. THIS WAS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT.

NHTSA complaint 1007183

THE TIRES ON MY 2009, MERCURY MARQUIS, ARE DRY ROTTED. I HAVE ALSO NOTED THAT THERE ARE HOLES IN THE SIDEWALLS ON ALL OF THEM ALONG WITH A LARGE BULGE IN THE RIGHT PASSENGER, SIDE TIRE WALL WITH A TEAR AND LARGE HOLE WHERE THE BULGE IS. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO LOOK UP ON THE WEB SITE TO SEE IF MY TIRES ARE IN THE RECALL LISTS WITH SOME DIFFICULTY. I SINCERLY HOPE YOU CAN HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM AS I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE NOW AND MY HUSBAND HAS SEVERE PARKINSONS DESEASE AND I AM AFRAID SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO HIM. THANK YOU! I WILL BE LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE.

Michelin pilot sport all season 4: what the numbers tell you

The Pilot Sport All Season 4's UTQG treadwear rating of 500 puts it in the long-wear class. Its compound is engineered for life over outright grip, which is appropriate for an everyday touring tire. The 45,000-mile warranty is one of the most concrete data points for a tire. It is the manufacturer's own statement of compound durability under normal use. Warranty replacement is typically prorated, so it will not fully offset the cost of a new tire, but the warranty length is a reasonable expectation of useful tread life.

Cabin noise of 69 dB (EU label) is on the quieter end of the segment. This tire will fade into the background at highway speeds. As a all-season tire built for the performance segment, the Pilot Sport All Season 4 is positioned against direct rivals within the same category. Comparing it to a tire in a different category (e.g. summer vs all-season) makes the spec sheet misleading because the design targets are not the same.

Grand-touring all-season tire that targets summer-tire dry grip while keeping useful winter traction down to about 20°F.
