Consumer Description

WHILE TRAVELING TO KANSAS CITY EARLY MORNING 4.24.17 AT 6AM I TOOK EXIT 123B TO MERGE ONTO I35 SOUTH FROM I80. WHEN MERGING ONTO I35S I ENCOUNTERED A LARGE "POT HOLE" OR WHAT I WOULD CALL A MAN HOLE THAT BLEW BOTH MY DRIVERS SIDE TIRES AND DID SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO MY SUSPENSION. I HAD A WDM POLICE OFFICER REVIEW THE LARGE HOLE AND IDENTIFIED IT AS NEEDING REPAIR. A FEW HOLES LATER THE DOT WAS OUT TO THE AREA REPAIRING. I WOULD LIKE SOMEONE TO CONTACT ME ABOUT THE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE.
