Truck Tires
My Dodge 2004 with 41000 miles had a tire failure "General Tires" last week. I had over 50% of the tread left but the tread broke loose on the left front and I felt a bump, bump, bump in the steering wheel and the truck. Stopped and saw the bump in the middle of the tread and drove slowly, less than 2 miles, to the nearest town.
Bought two new tires, Goodyear wrangler, for the front.
In checking the tire built date found that they were over eight years old. There has been several notices in the news about tires in-the-store being several years old before they are sold and to be careful.
Anyone checked their tire age?
