Tires
11/12/2016
AROUND FIVE YEARS AGO, WE BOUGHT 4 NEW DOUGLAS ULTRA TRAC 2 TIRES FROM THE LOCAL WALMART. THE TRUCK WAS RETIRED FROM HIGHWAY USE SHORTLY AFTER AND THE TIRES HAVE LESS THAN A THOUSAND MILES USE ON THEM. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN IN LIGHT USE AROUND THE HOUSE TO MOVE MATERIALS AFTER, AND SEEN LESS THAN ONE HUNDRED MILES USE. SILVER CITY NEW MEXICO IS A RURAL AREA WITH NO SMOG AT AROUND 6 THOUSAND FEET. I HEARD A NOISE IN THE YARD, WENT TO INVESTIGATE AND FOUND THAT A REAR TIRE HAD BLOWN OUT ON THE INSIDE REAR. THE FAILURE HAD COME FROM THE BEAD OF THE TIRE, ON THE SHADED SIDE OF THE WHEEL. THERE WAS NO OTHER DAMAGE TO BE SEEN ON THE TIRE. ON EXAMINING THE TIRE BEFORE REMOVAL, I FOUND THAT THE RUBBER WAS SO DETERIORATED THAT I COULD TEAR IT, CHORD INCLUDED, WITH MY BARE HANDS (I'M NEARLY 70 AND DISABLED). I FELT THAT THESE TIRES ARE A CONSIDERABLE SAFETY HAZARD. HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO CONTACT THE LOCAL WALMART MANAGEMENT WITHOUT SUCCESS. HAS ANYTHING BEEN DONE TO REMOVE THESE TIRES FROM USE...

THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW IN THE AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM, FILTER FILLS UP WITH WATER, CAUSING THE AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM TO RUST OUT, AND THE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR TO RUST SHUT, FLOODING THE ENGINE, FIX IS REPLACE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR, REBUILD/REPLACE AIR INDUCTION CONTROLS, AND THE FILTER AND CANISTER, AND DRILL A SMALL DRAIN HOLE IN THE CANISTER SO THAT THE CONDENSATION CAN DRAIN OUT, UNTIL NISSAN MAKES A BETTER REPLACEMENT CANISTER FOR THE FILTER. *TR
