Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Possible defect in continental's contisport contact oem tires (size 215/45zr17) that came with my new ford focus svt. i recently had a severe blow out on a highway i-90. luckily for me, it didn't result in any death, injury or destruction of the property but still there is no excuse for the ultra performance tire to fail in such a short period of time (under 6000 miles.) after further inspection i also discovered that one more tire developed sidewall crack and would have to be replaced. *jb
