Consumer Description

HAVE HAD TWO BLOWOUTS ON THE SAME WHEEL (REAR PASSENGER) WITH DIFFERENT TIRE BRANDS IN LESS THAN THREE YEARS OF OWNING THE CAR (BLOWOUTS WERE 16 MONTHS APART, MAYBE 8K MILES). THE HONDA FIT IS NOT CAPABLE OF DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS! I WAS TRAVELING AT 75 MPH, THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH, MY CAR AND STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO VIBRATE/JERK, CAR FISHTAILED, AND I WAS THROWN PERPENDICULAR INTO TRAFFIC! I WAS LUCKY TO NOT BE HIT BY OTHER DRIVERS ON THE HIGHWAY AS THEY WERE ABLE TO STOP (SECOND TIME, THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS BEHIND ME). THIS HAPPENED TWICE! THESE WHEELS ARE NOT SAFE! NHTSA NEEDS TO LAUNCH A FULL INVESTIGATION. *TR
