I don't agree with who ended up with blame in the lawsuit. GM vehicles had the same tires and wasn't having issues, between that and knowing a few older guys that worked at the Ranger plant here in Minnesota, even they said it was due to under-inflation. Heck, there were even people with other brand tires on their exploders doing the same thing!
But whatever, Firestone took the hit. I love Firestone and Bridgestone, would NEVER use anything but them. I've had terrible luck with Goodyear, Continental, BFGoodrich... I'm happy where I'm at.
My truck came with Wrangler RT/S's with all 4 treads separating. The cords were all sticking out UNDER the tread, and the tire was technically at half tread.
