IF THIS WAS ON A SINGLE AXLE TRAILER, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS. THESE TIRES WERE 4 YEARS OLD AND HAD APPROXIMATELY 3000 MILES AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE. TIRE INFLATION WAS CHECKED AT THE RECOMMENDED 65 PSI, THE TIRES WERE NOT "ROTTED". THE TRAILER WAS RATED FOR 10668 LBS AND THE ACTUAL LOAD AT THE TIME OF THE TIRE FAILURE WAS LESS THAN 8000 LBS.

Emerging complaint spikes

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.

This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.

No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.

Equal-age model-year comparison

Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
