Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING IN THE HIGHWAY AT 65MPH WHEN THE LEFT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT AND THE CAR SWERVED VIOLENTLY TO THE LEFT. THANKFULLY THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS AROUND, AND I WAS ABLE TO HANDLE THE STEERING WHEEL AND BREAK SLOWLY, TAKING THE CAR TO THE SHOULDER. THE 4 TIRES WERE MICHELIN DEFENDER 205/55R16 AND WERE BOUGHT AT COSTCO ON 01/2015. SUPPOSEDLY THEY HAVE 90,000 MILE WARRANTY. THE CAR WAS NOT OVERLOADED, I WAS THE ONLY PASSENGER AND THE WEATHER WAS COOL.
