TIRES
DRIVING NORMALLY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, THE TREAD ON MY TIRE JUST POPPED OFF AND CAUSED ME TO VEER ALL OVER ROADWAY AND INTO DITCH. THERE WAS EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE FROM TREAD HITTING UNDERCARRIAGE AND BODY. POLICE HAD TO ASSIST. MY TIRES WERE PROPERLY INFLATED AND I WAS DRIVING UNDER THE SPEED LIMIT DUE TO HEAVY TRAFFIC ON INTERSTATE. THE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 99 F DEGREES. MY INSURANCE REFUSES TO PAY FOR A NEW SET OF TIRES AND I DON'T THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY THE LARGE DEDUCTIBLE TO GET REPAIRS MADE ON VEHICLE. THESE ARE OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE TIRES AND I'M TERRIFIED THAT THEY WILL EXPLODE AGAIN. THE DEFECTIVE TIRE IS STILL INFLATED JUST NO TREAD IS LEFT ON TIRE. I HAVE KEPT TIRE FOR EVIDENCE AND TAKEN ABOUT 30 PICTURES OF ALL THE DAMAGE. I DO NOT KNOW WHO TO TURN TO FOR HELP IN THIS MATTER. *AK (TIRESIZE: P235/70R16)
