I BOUGHT A NEW 25' GOOSENECK FLATBED TRAILER BUILT BY A COMPANY IN TEXAS (LOCAL RETAILER CHANGED TRAILER NAME). I HAS ABOUT 10,000 MILES ON IT. IT CAME WITH 4 COOPER DISCOVER RADIAL AST TIRES ON IT. TWO OF THEM ARE STILL ORIGINAL. THE TIRES ARE NOT AT FAULT, THE VALVE STEMS ARE AT FAULT. WITHIN A 6 WEEK PERIOD, ALL FOUR VALVE STEMS CRACKED NEAR THE RIM AND DEFLATED THE TIRES. THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED ON INTERSTATE ROADWAY CAUSING THE TIRE TO HAVE TO BE REPLACED AFTER RUNNING FLAT WHILE MAKING A SAFE STOP. SECOND TIRE (A FEW DAYS LATER), SAME THING. THIRD TIRE DEFLATED IN MY YARD, SITTING STILL. I SAW WHAT WAS HAPPENING WITH THE STEMS AND REPLACED THE FOURTH WITH THE THIRD, NO DAMAGE. COST ME $284 TO REPLACE TWO DAMAGED TIRES AND NEW VALVE STEMS AND $225 FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. $3 FOR TWO VALVE STEMS ON THE UNDAMAGED TIRES. *TR

DT: THE CONTACT STATED ON APRIL 17, 2005 THE FUEL TANK FOR THE GENERATOR LEAKED GAS. THE GAS LEAKED FROM WHERE THE CONTACT PUT THE GAS NOZZLE INTO THE FILL TUBE OR GAS CAP ITSELF. WHEN THE TANK WAS FULL IT LEAKED EITHER WHEN THE TRAILER WAS BEING PULLED OR WHEN IT WAS PARKED. THIS HAPPENED ONLY WHEN THE GAS TANK WAS FULL. THE VENT LINE TO THE GAS TANK WAS REPAIRED ON MAY 25, 2005 BY THE MANUFACTURER UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER, THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM BECAUSE ON NOVEMBER 22, 205 THE GAS TANK LEAKED AGAIN. *AK UPDATED 1/4/2006 - *NM
