Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: One of the tires blew up on me without any warnig all over suddenly my truck was fish tailing in the middle of the highway. i was very close to cause a collective accident. i contacted the manufacturer and they reffered me to their local dealer to look at the tires but their answer was that the damage was caused by a road hazard. the problem is that the tires blew up in pieces in a matter of seconds. i installed the spare tire but the day after i notice that the tire wall has a big lump.( look like a weaker section on the side ready to explode) dt
