Consumer Description

THE TIRES ON MY VEHICLE ARE THE SAME TYPE AND SIZE AS THE RECALLED TIRES. ACCORDING TO A LOCAL FIRESTONE LOCATION, MY TIRES HAVE NOT BEEN RECALLED. HOWEVER, FIRESTONE STATED THAT MY TIRES ARE DOING THE SAME THING AS THE RECALLED TIRES AND SHOULD BE REPLACED. IT IS A CONCERN THAT AFTER THE FIRESTONE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS TOLD MY TIRES ARE SHOWING THE SAME SIGNS, THEY DID NOT QUESTION WHICH PLANT MY TIRES CAME FROM. APPARENTLY, THE RECALL SHOULD INCLUDE TIRES FROM OTHER PLANTS. *AK( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 235/75R15 )
