Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was traveling east-bound along i-70 about 4 p.m. cst when the accident occurred. the tire was found to still be inflated when i went to change the tire. upon taking the car to get the tires replaced, the delaminated tire was looked at and the tire was found to have held a pressure of 28 psi. i did not know that there was something wrong with the tire until the road suddenly became bumpy and the tire delaminated. i believed that the tire had exploded, but that was not the case. the tread was completely gone and the belt underneath was completely smooth. when the tire delamination, the car fish-tailed wildly, and i almost lost control of the vehicle. the damage to the right rear of the car was extensive - $2200. there were tire marks all over the right rear of the car. there were even tire marks on the driver's side window. if i had not regained control of the car, i could have been severely injured or killed. dt
