2015 Chrysler Town & Country Tires & Wheels Problems

WE PURCHASED A SET OF 4 NEW TIRES ONLINE WITH MANUF. WARRANTEE. HAD THEM INSTALLED. EXACTLY A WEEK LATER THE BACK PASSENGER SIDE BLEW WHILE DRIVING TO PICK MY DAUGHTER FROM SCHOOL(ON THE SIDE NOT TREAD OF TIRE.) CALLED HANKOOK . ITHEY ASKED ME TO GO TO TIRESPLUS TO HAVE IT INSPECTED AND REPLACEMENT DONE. THE TIRE PLACE PUT THE NEW TIRE ON AND CHARGED ME. THEY STATED CALLED HANKOOK AND PUT THE CASE NUMBER IN BUT DID NOT AGREE TO SEND THE BROKEN TIRE IN WITH THIER DISTRIBUTOR TO HANKOOK SO THAT THEY COULD DO A REFUND OR REPLACEMENT. I SPENT HOURS ON THE PHONE BACK AND FORTH. I NEEDED A CAR SO I PAID AND LEFT. I STILL KEPT CALLING AND HANKOOK STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT REFUND ME. THAT THEY NEEDED THE TIRES PLUS PLACE TO RETURN THE TIRE, THEY WOULD PAY THEM AND THE TIRES PLUS HAD TO PAY ME. THE TIRES PLUS STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT DO THAT AND THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE HANKOOK DISTRIBUTORS, EVEN THOUGH I WAS SENT TO THEM. THESE WERE BRAND NEW TIRES LESS THAN A WEEK INSTALLED. I AM NOW WORRIED THAT THE OTHER 3 MAY BE DEFECTIVE AND I HAVE ALREADY SPENT OVER MY BUGET ON THIS ISSUE. I SPOKE TO JD AT HANKOOK 615-432-0700 WHO SAID SHE WOULD TALK TO HER SUPERVISOR. I HAVE NOT HEARD BACK. I WILL EMAIL THEM A COPY OF PAYMENT PROOF AND PHOTOS OF THE TIRES. BUT SHE STATED THAT IF TIRES PLS WAS NOT SENDING THE TIRE, THEY COULD NOT REFUND ME. THE COMPANY THAT THEIR REPRESENTATIVE YOCELYN-TOLD ME TO GO TO---WILL NOT SEND THEM THE TIRE ,SO I DONT GET MY MONEY BACK. AND IM NOW CONCERNED ABOUT THE OTHER TIRES ALSO.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY. MY 2015 TOWN AND COUNTRY WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A SPARE TIRE. WE HIT A STONE THAT PUNCTURED THE SIDE WALL OF A FRONT TIRE. THERE WAS NO WAY THE COMPRESSOR PROVIDED WITH THE VEHICLE WOULD INFLATE THE TIRE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A SPARE TIRE IN A VEHICLE. THE FIRST HALF DOZEN CARS I OWNED HAD A FULL SIZE SPARE. SINCE THEN THEY HAD ECONO SPARES (DONUTS). THE LAST TIME I HAD A FLAT, I WAS ABLE TO CHANGE TIRES AND MAKE IT HOME. THE PUNCTURE I ENCOUNTERED THIS TIME HAPPENED 11:00 PM, NO ONE TO GIVE ASSISTANCE. NEAREST TOWING SERVICE WAS 20 MILES AWAY. WHY WAS CAR COMPANIES ALLOWED TO MAKE A SPARE TIRE A $350 OPTION? THE FANCY PUMP THEY PROVIDES THAT COMES WITH A RECHARGE CANISTER COST MORE THAN A SPARE TIRE. YOU PEOPLE REQUIRE SEAT BELTS AND AIR BAGS. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SAFETY SPARE? WHAT WOULD MY WIFE HAVE ONE IF I WASN'T THERE. NO SPARE IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN NO SEAT BELT. DO A SAFETY RECALL AND REQUIRE THE ADDITION OF SAFETY SPARE TIRES. MY WIFE COULD HAVE CHANGED THE TIRE. RON SHOEMAKER

LEFT REAR TIRE (MICHELIN RADIAL X GREEN ENERGY SAVER A/S DOT M33T 00KX 4014, P 225 65R17), MASSIVE BLOWOUT FAILURE). NO MORE THAN 22,000 MILES ON IT. OUTSIDE SIDEWALL SHREDDED. TREAD AREA REMAINED INTACT. SPEED ABOUT 35 MPH, AIR TEMP MID 70'S. DID NOT SEE ANY NAIL OR SCREW PENETRATING TREAD. WAS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC ON CROSS BRONX EXPRESSWAY HEADING TO GW BRIDGE, 9:15 AM SUNDAY WHEN BLOWOUT OCCURRED. WAS ABLE TO SAFELY GET TO ROADSIDE AND USED CALL BOX TO CALL FOR A TOW TRUCK. CAR WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A SPARE TIRE SO HAD TO BUY A NEW ONE.

ONE OF THE CONTINENTAL CROSSCONTACT LX TIRES 225/65 17 PURCHASED IN MAY HAS BEEN LEAKING AIR AND THE SIDEWALL IS SPLITTING BECAUSE OF THE TIRE GOING FLAT. THIS STARTED 1 MONTH AFTER PURCHASING THEM. I WOULD LIKE ALL 4 TIRES REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. IF YOU REPLACE ONE TIRE THEY WON'T MATCH. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER CONSUMERS REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE. MY BEST METHOD OF CONTACT IS VIA EMAIL.
