Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY REAR TIRE BLEW. IT WAS A CLEAR DAY , NOTHING IN THE ROAD. AFTER HAVING MY TIRE INSPECTED BY AT LEAST 3 DIFFERENT INDIVISUALS NO ONE COULD COME UP WITH ANY REASON WHY IT BLEW OTHER THAN IT BEING A DEFECTIVE TIRE. I HAVE SINCE REPLACED ALL 4 OF MY TIRES WITH DUNLOPS. BUT THOUGHT IT IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO REPORT INCASE THERE ARE MORE OF THIS SIZE TIRES FAILING ALSO.( DOT NUMBER: W29V1PK245 TIRE SIZE: P26575R15 )
