I feel unsafe in vehicle at times when driving. the vehicle stalls sometime when taking off after you have stopped at a light and press on gas it sort of hesitates then goes.

I have had cars since I was 16. The tires have never worn the way they are wear. I bought a 2020 Land Rover Discovery Sport. The tires that came with it are the pirelli scorpion. There are chunks that come out of the tread or look like they are on the verge in the middle section of the tire. The original ones that I have issues with are 235/55/R19. I bought 2 new ones which I am not sure the year on those but same brand and they did the same thing plus wear. It was 2 years ago that I bought the new ones and only 10,349 miles. That doesnât seem right. Something is wrong with these tires.
