TIRES:SIDEWALL
I HAVE EXPERIENCED WHAT APPEARS TO BE A SIDE WALL FAILURE OF A FIRESTONE LIGHT TRUCK TIRE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED SHORTLY AFTER ENTERING THE HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH. WHILE ACCELARATING DOWN THE ENTRANCE RAMP I NOTICED A VIBRATION COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE TRUCK WHICH STOPPED ONCE I MERGED ONTO THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 55 MPH. AT THAT TIME I THOUGHT THE VIBRATION WAS DUE TO ROUGH PAVEMENT ON THE ENTRANCE RAMP. A SHORT TIME LATER, POSSIBLY 3 OR 4 MILES, THE DRIVER SIDE REAR TIRE BLEW. THERE WAS A SLIGHT LOSS OF CONTROL AS THE REAR END OF THE TRUCK FELT AS IF IT WERE SLIDING FROM SIDE TO SIDE. THE TRUCK NOTICEABLY LEANED TO THE LEFT . THE EXTERIOR SIDEWALL (FACING THE OUTSIDE OF THE TRUCK) OF THE TIRE HAD SEPARATED ENTIRELY LEAVING ONLY A SMALL RING OF RUBBER AROUND THE RIM OF THE WHEEL. I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS IS THE TYPE OF FAILURE THAT HAS OCCURRED WITH OTHER FIRESTONE TIRES. WHEN I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THESE TIRE WERE SAFE. *AK (DOT NUMBER: ?
