Consumer Description

I PURCHASED 2 KELLY CHARGER TIRES-SIZE 215/40R17-ON 10/13/03-MY TIRES BLEW IN JUNE OF 04 THEN AGAIN IN JULY OF 04. THEY BLEW ONCE AGAIN ON 10.21.04, CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT ON MY PART ON 95 SOUTH. I LOST CONTROL OF MY CAR AND WAS RUN OVER BY AN 18 WHEELER FLAT BED. LUCKLY I OBVIOUSLY SURVIVED WITH NO INJURIES, HOWEVER, I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE OF THE NUMEROUS TIMES I HAD TO REPLACE THE TIRES. THE CAR I WAS DRIVING WAS DESTROYED AND I AM CURIOUS REGARDING THE LIABILITY OF THE MANUFACTURING COMPANY. I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE ACCIDENT SCENE AND THE POLICE REPORT WHICH HAS A STATEMENT FROM A WITNESS STATING THAT HE SAW MY TIRE BLOW OUT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. SINCERELY, ELIZABETH PONTE. *AK
