Consumer Description

FLAT TIRE CAUSED BY POT-HOLE. CAUSED CUT IN TIRE. DISCOVERED THAT CAR DOES NOT HAVE A SPARE TIRE. INSTEAD HAS A "FIX-A-FLAT" KIT. DID NOT WORK - WILL NOT WORK WITH A CUT CAUSED BY A POT HOLE. THE SEALANT WILL NOT SEAL A QUARTER INCH LONG CUT AND SO THE KIT PUMP WILL NOT INFLATE THE TIRE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION. IF SIMILAR INCIDENT HAPPENS ON A HIGHWAY LONG WAY FROM A REPAIR FACILITY, DRIVER IS STRANDED. FOR A WOMAN, AT NIGHT, IN REMOTE LOCATION, THIS IS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS. NO DEATHS OR BODILY INJURY WHICH IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL SUCH INCIDENTS OCCUR. *TR
