Contact the NHSTA and tell them what happened. Their website allows you enter complaints as they will take action on bad tire as they did with firestone and dunlops. That will get yokohama's attention when they get a call from them. That looks like a pretty bad failure. That at speed can kill someone in the car or riding behind them on a bike.

Yeah... I'm going to give Yokohama a fair shot. They reimburse of everything I had to pay... then I'll be good. If not, major hell storm will be sent to them. And if they make it a painful process for me, I'll be calling a lot of people. lol

That sucks and Hopfully they do something for you. I never had a tire do that before. Did You notice any issues with the tires before this happened?
