Consumer Description
11/4/15 MY WIFE WHILE DRIVING IN HER WORK PARKING LOT AT A SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH EXPERIENCED A TIRE BLOWOUT ON THE LEFT FRONT TIRE. THE BLOWOUT CAUSED A SMALL TEAR IN THE TIRE AT THE SEAM WHERE THE SIDEWALL JOINS THE TREAD. WE COULD FIND NO EVIDENCE OF ANYTHING OTHER THAN A DEFECT IN THE TIRE WHICH COULD HAVE ATTRIBUTED TO THE BLOWOUT. IT WAS ACCOMPANIED BY A LOUD NOISE AND IMMEDIATELY LOSING ALL AIR PRESSURE IN THE TIRE. THE TIRE IS A CONTINENTAL CONTIPRO CONTACT SIZE 215/55 R 16 93H | DOT NUMBER CNB3 WBPC 0615.
