Consumer Description

THE TREAD ON THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE SEPARATED AND THE VEHICLE WENT OFF THE ROAD AND ROLLED 4 OR 5 TIMES. I WAS INJURED WITH BRUSES, SCRATCHES,AND GLASS CUTS IN MY FACE. I HAVE CONTACTED NORMA DAVIS AT FIRESTONE (800-543-7522),BUT SHE STATED THAT I NEEDED THE TIRE FOR HER TO HELP. I HAVE SINCE HAD THE VEHICLE REPOCESSED, BECAUSE MY INSURANCE(NATIONWIDE INSURANCE CO.)CHOSE TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE FOR $10000. AFTER MONTHS OF TAKING THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE REPAIR SHOP, I WAS TOLD THAT NATIONWIDE WOULD NO LONGER BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIRS CAUSED BY MY ACCIDENT. MY CREDIT IS RUINED AND I CAN NOT GET ANY HELP. I DO NOT KNOW WHERE TO TURN. PLEASE HELP ME IF POSSIBLE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.*AK( DOT NUMBER: )
