TIRES
ALL FOUR OF OUR TIRES ARE THE SAME BRAND AND DOT NUMBER. THESE TIRES ARE NOT CURRENTLY LISTED ON THE RECALL LIST. THEY CAME ON OUR 1999 NISSAN TRUCK WHEN WE PURCHASED IT NEW. ONE OF THE TIRES HAS ALREADY SEPARATED AND WAS DISCOVERED BEFORE CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. SINCE ALL 4 TIRES HAD THE SAME DOT NUMBERS, WE REPLACED ALL 4 OF THEM IMMEDIATELY WITH NON-FIRESTONE TIRES TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT AND POSSIBLE DEATH. WE DID NOT DISCARD THE FIRESTONE TIRES IN CASE WE NEEDED THEM FOR INSPECTION PURPOSES. AGAIN, WE DO HAVE POSSESSION OF THE FIRESTONE TIRES.( DOT NUMBER: W2VF NNA TIRE SIZE: P215/65R15 )

TIRES
WHAT IS A "COUNTER BALANCED TIRE?" NISSAN HAD TO REPLACE MY ORIGINAL TIRES. IT TOOK THEM 22,000 MILES TO FIGURE OUT THE TIRES WERE DEFECTIVE. WAYNE SIMS A SERVICE ADVISOR AT PELTIER, KEPT SPEAKING OF COUNTER BALANCED TIRES, I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS. WITH THIS FIRESTONE SCARE, I'M AFRAID THERE ARE OTHER SIZES THAT HAVE A PROBLEM AND NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT IT. WITH ONLY 2000 CHARACTERS, I CAN'T TYPE EVERYTHING I NEED TO..( DOT NUMBER: W2VF TIRE SIZE: P215/65R15 )
