I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MILES PER HOUR WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL WAS JERKED OUT OF MY HANDS. THE TRUCK BEGAN TO SWERVE AND VIBRATE, AND I REALIZED A TIRE HAD BLOWN OUT. I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING I COULD HAVE HIT ON THE ROAD NOR DID I FEEL LIKE I HAD HIT ANYTHING. I CHANGED THE TIRE AND TOOK THE BLOWN TIRE TO MY LOCAL GOODYEAR DEALER WHO EXAMINED IT AND CONFIRMED THAT THE TIRE HAD NOT BEEN CUT OR PUNCTURED AND CONCLUDED THAT I WAS RUNNING LOW TIRE PRESSURE AND THEREFORE, EVEN THOUGH THERE IS ONLY 17% TREAD WEAR I WAS ENTITLED TO ONLY A 50% ADJUSTMENT ON THE TIRE. NUMER ONE I CHECK MY TIRE PRESSURES ON ALL MY VEHICLES REGULARLY AND KEEP AT LEAST 40 TO 42 POUNDS OF AIR IN AT ALL TIMES, AND NUMBER TWO WHAT HAPPENED TO MY MANUFACTURERS...
