Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 75MILES PER HOUR THE LEFT REAR TIRE HAD A BLOWOUT, THE TIRE COMPLETELY PEELED APART. IT TOOK MY HUSBAND ABOUT 1MILE TO COME TO A STOP, DURING WHICH TIME THE TIRE CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE PAINT , WHEEL WELL, TORE OFF A MUD FLAP, AND BENT THE STEEL RIM. THE VEHICLE IS A WORK TRUCK SO MY HUSBAND PURCHASED 4 NEW TIRES IMMEDIATELY THE TRUCK WAS VIBRATING BECAUSE OF THE BENT RIM SO HE ALSO PURCHASED NEW RIMS. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANYTHING THAT I MIGHT COLLECT FROM FIRESTONE. I KNOW HIS TIRES ARE NOT ON THE RECALL???BUT IT CAME APART JUST LIKE ALL THE TIRES YOU SEE ON TV AND THE INTERNET...THANX IN ADVANCE JO LACHANCE. *AK (DOT NUMBER: VN11BFC TIRESIZE: LT245/75R1)
