Consumer Description

THE FIRESTONE TIRE (STEELTEX A/T; 245 75R16) THAT BLEW OUT ON MY SUBURBAN WAS BRAND NEW. IT WAS MY SPARE TIRE. I DROVE ON IT APPROXIMATELY 20 MILES WHEN AN APPROXIMATELY 6 INCH SQUARE PIECE OF THE SIDEWALL BLEW OUT FOR NO APPARENT REASON. IN LIGHT OF ALL THE RECENT PROBLEMS WITH FIRESTONE TIRES AND RECENT NEWS REPORT THAT THIS PARTICULAR TIRE IS UNDER INVESTIGATION, I FELT IT WAS IMPORTANT TO REPORT THIS TIRE FAILURE. (TIRESIZE: 245 75R16)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 245 75R16 )
