I BOUGHT THE 1986 CHEVY K10 FROM [XXX] IN PARIS, KY ON 26AUG16. THE VEHICLE APPEARED TO HAVE BRAND NEW FIRESTONE FIREHAWK ATX P235/75R15 ON ALL FOUR WHEELS. LAST THURSDAY WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON 75N OUTSIDE OF LEXINGTON, KY THE PASSENGER FRONT TIRE HAD A MALFUNCTION. THE TREAD COMPLETELY RIPPED OFF THROWING ME IN AN ALMOST ROLL AND DAMAGING THE ENTIRE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE TRUCK. I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER NOTED THESE WERE THE TIRES THAT WERE RECALLED. I RESEARCHED THE RECALL INFO WHICH BRINGS ME HERE. I ATTEMPTED A PHONE CALL WITH FIRESTONE WHICH WAS COMPLETELY UNSUCCESSFUL AS THE INDIVIDUAL WAS THE WORST CUSTOMER ASSISTANT EVER. I ALSO KNOW NOW AFTER LOOKING UP THE TIRE DATA THESE TIRES WERE BORN IN 1995. THE DEALERSHIP NEVER DISCLOSED THE OVER 20 YR TIRES TO ME AS I WOULD HAVE REPLACED THEM IMMEDIATELY. I WAS SIMPLY THE UNSUSPECTING VICTIM WHO WAS UNDER THE ASSUMPTION THAT THE TIRES LOOKED BRAND NEW SO THEY MUST HAVE BEEN. THE FIRESTONE INDIVIDUAL WOULD NOT ASSIST ME IN WHEREVER OR NOT THESE WERE THE TIRES THAT WERE RECALLED. HOWEVER, THERE IS ALSO THE DEALERSHIP WHO SOLD ME THE VEHICLE AND NEVER MENTIONED ANYTHING IN REGARDS TO THEIR AGE OR POTENTIAL RECALL. I PLAN ON SPEAKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP TONIGHT IN REGARDS TO THE SITUATION. I THOUGHT IT BEST TO ALSO FILE A NOTE HERE. THANK YOU.
