Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY 2001 FORD EXCERSION, WITH MY WIFE AND TWO DAUGHTERS, ON THE FREEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH. THE LEFT REAR FIRESTONE STEELTEX AT TIRE BLEW OUT AS A RESULT OF THE TIRE TRED SEPERATING FROM THE REST OF THE TIRE. THE VEHICLE HAD 49530 MILES AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. THE LEFT REAR QUARTER PANEL AND FENDER WERE DAMAGED AS A RESULT OF THE BLOW OUT. ON 06-20-05, FIRESTONE REPLACED FOUR OUT OF THE FIVE TIRES I HAD ON THE VEHICLE AS PART OF A RECALL. THE SPARE TIRE IS ON ODER, BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE IT IN STOCK.
