I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 70MPH WHEN TREAD SEPERATED FROM TIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS SENT ACROSS THREE LANES OF TRAFFICE INTO THE MEDIAN AND ALMOST INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IT TOOK ALL MY STRENGTH TO KEEP THE VEHICLE FROM ENDING UP IN THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IT TOOK OUT THE ALL DASHBOARD CONTROLS AND DID EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE QUARTER PANEL AND BUMPER. LUCKILY, NO ONE WAS INJURED BUT IT COULD HAVE ENDED UP A LOT WORSE.*AK
