Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On the first incident one of the tires was in pretty bad shape and ready to explode, it caused my car to be misaligned. during the alignment they discovered the defect and replace the tire for the same type. on the second incident the tire peeled-off while i was driving on the freeway at 65mph. i was lucky to being able to control the car and pull to the side, but it was very scary and i almost crashed. at that time i was driving with my wife (pregnant 6 months) and my 3 year old son. the tire problem caused a lot of damage to the car and part of it was covered by the insurance. please help me get a refund from these problems as now firestone has accepted responsibility in this quality issue. thanks. francisco buitron.( dot number: tire size: p235/75r15 )
