Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING WITH MY DAUGHTER TO MY FARMHOUSE IN SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS WHEN MY REAR PASSENGER SIDE TIRE JUST BLEWOUT. THERE ARE SEVERAL AREAS ON THE TIRE WHERE THE OUTER RUBBER APPEARS TO HAVE WORN OFF. THOSE AREAS ARE WHITE IN COLOR. ALSO THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR TIRE IS SHOWING WEAR AND THERE ARE WHITE AREAS SHOWING UP ON IT ALSO. THESE TIRES WERE NOT IN THE RECALL, BUT PERHAPS THEY SHOULD BE. I WAS LUCKLY GOING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED AND NO INJURIES OCCURED AND I WAS ABLE TO STOP. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND AM WAITING FOR A REPLY FROM THEM. I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU SOON ALSO. THANKS, TRENT BUNN (DOT NUMBER: W2UUIPO468 TIRESIZE: P255/70R15)
