On 3/17/2014 we had 4 2-lt225/75r16e ht 701 115s bw sentinel installed on our van by big brand tire & service in lompoc ca. These tires are rated for 50,000 miles. We have driven about 13,000 miles. On 8/6/2020 we were driving from wa to southern ca. The right rear tire started going flat while driving. We had aaa install the spare and we continued on our trip. About 200 miles later the van started shaking very badly. We were on i5 in the middle of the ca desert. Using our phone we found a tire shop about 50 miles away. We manage to limp our way to the tire shop. They said the the tread was separating. We had all four bran new tires installed. I have been unable to find any contact information for the sentinel tire manufacturer. These tires are dangerous and should be recalled. We are very lucky, this could have ended in a catastrophe. We would like to find contact info for the manufacturer to try and get some compensation.
