2001 Fleetwood Expedition

I DRIVE A 2001 FLEETWOOD 36' EXPEDITION, IT HAD ABOUT 21,00 MILES AT THIS TIME. ON OCTOBER 20, 2003 I HAD A R/F STEERING TIRE BLOWOUT S/E OF ST. LOUIS MO. AROUND 5PM. HAD ROAD SERVICE PUT ON A USED TIRE. SPENT THE NIGHT IN SULLIVAN MO. AT A FLYING-J ABOUT 75 MILES DOWN THE ROAD. THE MORNING OF THE 21ST. I CHECKED ALL TIRES FOR CORRECT PRESSURE. NONE WERE FOUND TO BE LOW (100PSI). CONTINUED TRIP TO SPRINGFIELD, MO. WHERE AFTER ABOUT 130 MILES A L/R INSIDE DUAL BLEW.THESE ARE MICHELIN TIRES SIZE XRV 235-80R-22.5. THE FRONT TIRE WAS IN SHREDS AND I HAD NO WAY OF HAULING IT. I LIKE MICHELIN TIRES AND SO ORDER 6 NEW XZE TIRES. THEY WERE JUST PUT ON TODAY. SO AT THIS TIME THE DEALER HAS THE INSIDE TIRE WATING FOR THE MICHELIN REP. TO LOOK AT IT. THE DEALER SAYS IT LOOKS LIKE A TEXT BOOK CASE FOR LOW TIRE PRESSURE. I EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT I'M METICULOUS ABOUT PROTECTING AND SAFE GUARDING MY M.H.. I KEEP IT CLEAN, TIRE COVERS ON, PROTECTED ON THE TIRES, TIRE PRESSURE CHECKED BEFOR TRIP,DURING,AND HEADED HOME. DURING ANY LONG STORAGE SOME WEIGHT IS KEEP ON THE JACKS. I HAVE A FRIEND IN FLORIDA THAT HAS A M.H. LIKE MINE AND HE HAS BLOWN 3 OF THESE TIRES THIS YEAR ALSO. ACORDING TO THE DEALER, MICHELIN WILL NOT WARRANTY THIS TIRE, BUT HE WILL TRY. MOST THINGS I'M READING ON THE INTERNET ARE THAT MOST PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME TYPE OF PROBLEMS WITH THIS TIRE THAT I HAVE HAD. SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF THEM AND MICHELIN IS NOT RESPONDING TO ITS CUSTERMERS WITH ANY KIND OF SATISFACTION. ALSO MICHELIN CHANGE THERE CHART ON THIS TIRE FROM THE OLD (100PSI.) WHICH IS STAMPED ON THE OLD ONES, TO (110PSI.) WHICH IS STAMPED ON THE NEW ONES. I CALLED MICHELIN ABOUT THE TIME THEY MADE THIS CHANGE AND THE LADY I TALKED TO TOLD ME THAT THEY ONLY MADE THE CHANGE TO MEET STANDARDS WITH THE REST OF THE INDUSTRY. SHE ALSO SAID IT WAS OK TO PUT THIS PRESSURE IN THE OLD (100PSI.) TIRES. THANKS GARRY WILLIAMS. *AK
