WHILE DRIVING AT THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT ONE ON MY NEW TIRES DELAMINATED AND ALMOST CAUSING A FATAL ACCIDENT. AFTER SWITCHING TO THE SPARE, ABOUT THREE HOURS LATER ANOTHER TIRE ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE DID THE SAME THING!! THESE TIRES MUST BE DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. THE TIRE SHOP SAID THERE WAS NO VISIBLE DAMAGE TO THE TIRE. THEY ARE ONLY 3 YEARS OLD. I MAINTAIN THEM BY DRIVING THE VEHICLE OFTEN AND ALSO JUST HAD THE BRAKES CHECKED AND TIRES ROTATED BY A LICENSED FACILITY. *JB
