[Resolved] MRF Tyres — defective ZVTS tubeless tyres | |||
We purchased four Mrf zvtv tubeless tyres for our Honda city on 17/09/2012 from m/s Dhanshetty tyres, Bijapur. The first tyre showed bloating on sides (tyre-air) in feb 2013, was returned. We got the new tyre after paying Rs.1750/- for so called usage charges. The second tyre showed same defect and was returned in march again after paying the usage charges. The third tyre burst out on the road due to the same defect and has been returned on 1/4/13. we have now paid almost half the amount in excess for the defective tyres that were supplied. This is poor quality control or primitive technology from the so called leading tyre co. in india. Everyone should know this and avoid buying tyres from MRF. Was this information helpful? | |||

I am also facing the same problem. I bought my Honda City in May 2012. On 16th July 2013 I noticed that the tyre on the driver side has Tyre air bloating. I have only driven 7000 Kms. I was thinking of going to the company for replacement, but with your experience, I think its better to go for a new tyre of different make, may be Bridgestone. I have changed all 4 tyres of my Indica car with Bridgestone make tyres and they are running trouble free for more than 18000 Kms.

I had purchased MRF ZVTS Tyre & tube for my Maruti Zen Car on 14/01/2012 from MRF retailer for Shinde Tyres at Satara ( Pin 415001. The tyre got punctured & nail pierced out bursting the inner steel threads causing total damage to entire air tube. we get repaired as we were travelling in remote places. Again it got bursted and then we took it to MRF limited Kolhapur - pin 416001 for Replacement which they denied. How can nail pierce tearing steel thread - it means it is manufacturing deficiency/ defect. I am going to challenge it is court & expose the MRF which is just exploiting the Indian consumers. Complaint sent to their HO.
