Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was traveling along interstate 10, at approximately 60 mph. the visibility was clear; the roadway was clear of any obstructions. the tread on the right rear tire completely separated from the tire. i did not hit anything to cause this tread separation. the tire had just been inspected/rotated by a firestone dealer within the previous month. when the tread separated from the tire, the loose tread hit the rear quarter panel on my truck causing $2,000 worth of damages.*ak (dot number: h4p9djd486 tiresize: p195/75r14)
