I purchased two Ralson Steer Tires (drivers and passenger side) from Loves in [XXX] on XXX under invoice XXX. The drivers side tire tread pealed off the tire on XXX and was replaced by Loves roadside under invoice XXX in [XXX].

Tread of the tire delaminated, similar to what a recap would do. This happened at 43,476 miles +or- the first time. This incident occurred In Anton, Texas. My driver got stopped safely and the tire was still inflated. Moved the truck about a 100 yards to be in safer spot and the tire then went flat. Had tire replaced with Identical tire by Loves of Lubbock, TX. Had driver bring the bad tire in, as had never seen in 18 years in business a tire do this. I have tire in my possession. At 53, 456 miles, right at 10,000 miles the newly replaced tire, did the basic same thing. A 3" piece came out of the center of tire for the complete circumference of the tire. Driver got stopped safely. recovered
Driver seat back is defective and will not support driver properly. The seat back will bend and twist if pressure is applied to it. Putting the driver in an unsafe driving position where the torso is contorted. Four out of four trucks have the same issue with this OE seat. There is no advance warning of when the seat will fail. The issue has been discussed with Kenworth and no resolution has been found as of this time. We have four tractors that are having this same issue, the corresponding VIN numbers are: [XXX] , [XXX] , [XXX] , [XXX] . With the issue occurring on all four of our trucks, we believe this is not an isolated issue and is common with this OE seat. The defect has occurred u
