Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ALONG THE HIGHWAY WHEN THERE WAS A SUDDEN CHANGE IN THE HANDLING. I PULLED OFF TO FIND THE FRONT TIRE DEFLATING. FIRESTONE TOLD ME THAT I DID NOT PICK UP ANYTHING, BUT I BLEW THE INNER WALL FROM DRIVING ON IT WHILE IT WAS FLAT. THE TIRE WAS STILL PARTIALLY INFLATED UNTIL AFTER IT SAT PARKED FOR A FEW MOMENTS.*AK (TIRESIZE: 225/R17)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 225/R17 )
