Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)ON FEBRUARY 14, 2021 WHILE CHECKING TIRE PRESSURES OF MY 4 COOPER ADVENTURER H/T CUV 245/60R18 TIRES. I NOTICED NUMEROUS SPLITTING OF THE LOWER SIDEWALL, AROUND THE BEADS OF ALL 4 TIRES. THIS IS NOT NORMAL DRY ROT / CRACKING OF THE LOWER SIDEWALL. THE SPLITTING OF THE SIDEWALLS HAVE GAPS FROM 1/16TH TO 1/8TH OF AN INCH WIDE. THE GAPS ARE 2 - 3/32NDS OF AN INCH DEEP. THE DOT #'S OF ALL 4 TIRES ARE UP83 1HT 4117. THE TIRES WERE INSTALLED AROUND THE BEGINNING OF 2018. THE TIRES HAVE APPROX. 25K MILES ON THEM. COOPER TIRES / PEP BOYS HAVE A 65K WARRANTY ON THESE TIRES. THERE IS APPROX. 7 - 9/32NDS OF THREAD LEFT ON ALL 4 TIRES. JUNE 5, 2019 COOPER TIRES ISSUED A SAFETY RECALL ON THIS EXACT MODEL TIRE BUT IN A DIFFERENT SIZE. THE TIRE SIZE IN THIS RECALL IS 235/65R18. FEBRUARY 26, 2021 COOPER TIRES HAS ISSUED YET ANOTHER SAFETY RECALL ON THIS EXACT MODEL TIRE BUT IN A DIFFERENT SIZE. THE TIRE SIZE IN THIS RECALL IS 275/65R18. BOTH, JUNE 5, 2019 AND FEBRUARY 26, 2021 RECALLS OF THE COOPER ADVENTURER H/T CUV TIRES WERE ISSUED DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECTS OF THE LOWER SIDEWALL. THE 4 COOPER ADVENTURER H/T CUV 245/60R18 INSTALLED ON MY VEHICLE HAVE VERY SIMILAR LOWER SIDEWALL DEFECTS, AS BOTH OF THE ISSUED RECALLS FOR THIS EXACT SAME TIRE MODEL. I FEEL THAT THE SPLITTING OF MY TIRES ARE A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECTS. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE MY 245/60R18 COOPER ADVENTURER H/T CUV TIRES, AS WELL AS ALL OF THE OTHER SIZES OF THIS MODEL TIRE MADE BY COOPER, ADDED TO SAFETY RECALL TIRE LIST.
