| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I am not sure if i hit the center island and both tires blew or both tires blew and i hit the center island. if i hit the center island and both tires blew, then there is a problem since this is an off-the-road vehicle and the tires should not have sustained any damage. if the tires blew, and then i hit the island, then we have the same problem as the other firestone tires. either way is not good. i lost control of the vehicle temporarily, but was able to bring it to a stop without sustaining any body damage. only the wheels were destroyed along with both left side tires. i notified my insurance company, state farm, of my suspicions of firestone tires and also the dealer. but, this size was not included on the recall. i believe that there is something wrong. state farm has taken pictures of the tires through the body shop. *ak( dot number: tire size: p22560697h ) |
