Consumer Description

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS FOR THIS TIRE IN 1998. THE TIRES WERE ONLY TWO MONTHS OLD WHEN THE BACK PASSENGER SIDE TIRE CAME OFF THE RIM AND CAUSED ME TO SPIN INTO A GUARDRAIL. THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE ROAD TO CAUSE THE ACCIDENT. IT WAS REPORTED AS A BLOW OUT BUT THE TIRE ITSELF WAS NOT DAMAGED, IT CAME OFF THE RIM. I NEED TO KNOW IF I HAVE A VALID COMPLAINT TO TAKE TO THE MANUFACTURER OR IF THEY ARE NOT LIABLE FOR THIS PRODUCT ONCE IT IS SOLD TO THE TIRE DEALER. THE COMPANY NAME I GAVE, AVELLINO'S, IS THE TIRE DEALER. I WILL BE SPEAKING WITH THEM TOMORROW ABOUT THE TIRES BUT WILL KEEP THE FAULTY TIRE FOR EVIDENCE. IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION THAT MIGHT HELP ME PLEASE SEND IT TO MY EMAIL ADDRESS. THANK YOU.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 165/80R13 )
