| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I was driving on i20 at approx. 50 mph when the tread came off the left rear tire, causing damage to the left rear of the vehicle. (no injury occurred.) i had been to the firestone office in tyler, tx twice since the recall. the first time they looked at the tires and saw that they were already beginning to break loose, but had no tires to replace them, so they put my name on the list. last friday i checked to see when they would have the tires. they refused to even look at the condition of the tires then, just said that there were about 140 more ahead of mine. they said that my name was #2 on the atx list, but that wilderness ats were the only ones they were changing out now. they said it would be 2 more weeks before my number would come up, even though i told them again that the tread was already coming loose and that i drive 50 miles a day back and forth to work on highways.( dot number: vnhl1pm095 tire size: p235/75r15 ) |
