TIRES
DO FLA RESIDENTS NEED TO HAVE ACCIDENTS BEFORE THESE TIRES ARE RECALLED? ISN'T FL A HOT STATE? I HAVE ALREADY HAD ONE OF THESE TIRES PEEL LIKE A BANANA CAUSING OVER $700 TO MY REAR QUARTER PANEL. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS INJURED. WHAT DO I DO WITH THE OTHER FIRESTONE TIRE? THEY'RE JOKING WHEN THEY SAY COME IN FOR VISUAL INSPECTION, RIGHT? THESE TIRES LOOK GOOD AS NEW TO ME, AND I FEEL TIRES FOR HEAT AT EVERY FUEL STOP. TIRE I LOST WOULD'VE BEEN MY LAST CHOICE FOR THE 1ST TIRE TO BLOW.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 23575R15 )
