In 1998 I bought a new Dodge Ram 2500 and it came with Michelin E Rated tires. The first trip I took was empty and 2,000 miles to & from Florida. Tire pressure was ok as I am in a habit of checking tire inflation at every stop. We were on our way back and just crossed the Kentucky / Tennessee line, driving about 75 MPH at around midnight when my right rear tire blew! The tread had separated, and took out the exhaust, break-lines and the right side of the of the bed! After we got it to a dealership and looked at the remaining tires... they were all cracked where the tread meets the sidewall.
I contacted Michelin and they would not do one thing for me... and repairs in 1998 were over $6,800.00. I fought and fought with them and never got one red cent from them... I would not buy a Michelin tire ever again.

From the info you provided you should have had everything paid for by your insurance company. They should have gone after Michelin for damages.
I agree. Good Year once paid over Four thousand dollars for damage to my fifth wheel when a Good Year Marathon tire separated and the tread came off.
