Consumer Description

THE LEFT REAR TIRE ON MY MINIVAN BLEW OUT ON SOUTHBOUND I-75 AT MILE MARKER 309 ON TUESDAY SEPT. 5. THE TIRE FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO A CONTROLLED STOP WITH NO INJURIES AND NO VEHICLE DAMAGE OTHER THAN THE TIRE. CONTINENTAL GENERAL CLAIMS THIS FAILURE IS DUE TO "ROAD HAZARD" BUT THERE ARE NO CUTS, SCRATCHES, OR PUNCTURES THAT MAKES ME BELIEVE THIS IS TRUE. THE TIRE HAD ABOUT 6500 MILES ON IT. OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 80 DEGREES AND I WAS DRIVING ON SMOOTH PAVEMENT. I HAVE THE TIRE AVAILABLE FOR YOUR INSPECTION.( DOT NUMBER: ACM3 44C TIRE SIZE: P215/70R15 )
