Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: We were driving straight at 70 mph on i-35; all tires were properly inflated; there were no obstructions or debris in the roadway; without warning, the left rear tire came apart. the tread came off of the tire, wrapped around the axle while the wheel kept turning. from what i've read on your site, this appears to be exactly the same as the firestone/explorer problems.*ak
