NHTSA Complaint #728919 — 1993 ISUZU TROOPER

THIS IS THE SECOND TBRIDESTONE TIRE IN TWO MONTHS THAT I HAVE LOST TREAD FROM. I HAVE BEEN LUCKY TWICE AND DON'T WANT A THIRD INCIDENT. I WAS IN 5:30PM TRAFFIC AND FELT THAT THE CAR WAS NOT RIDING CORRECTLY I DECIDED TO EXIT THE FREEWAY AND WHEN I DID I LOST HALF OF THE TREAD. I STILL HAVE THE TIRE IN MY CAR. I DROVE IMMEDIATLEY TO A LOCAL FIRESTONE DEALER AND THE BEST THEY WOULD DO IS PRO-RATE MY ANOTHER BRIDGESTONE DUELER TIRE. I'M STUCK BECAUSE THESE TIRES ARE NOT IN THE RECALL AND SHOULD BE!! NOW I HAVE TO PAY FOR A NEW SET OF TIRES. THIS PROBLEM IS MORE WIDESPREAD THAN BRIDGESTONE LEADS THE PUBLIC TO THINK! PLEASE HELP!!( DOT NUMBER: EJMT TIRE SIZE: P24570R16 )
