| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I was proceding north on i17 just north of new river az when my left rear tire exploded. at the time i was traveling 75 mph which is the speed limit on the highway. i was in traffic and it took at least a mile to slow down and get off of the freeway safely. as i use this vehicle for recreational usage i had just had the tires rotated and i checked the air pressure 20 min. before this occured. all tires where at the proper inflation and since the tires had more than 50 percent tread i felt they where in great shape. i have since retired all of the tires by replacing them as i can't take the chance of another blow out. i was lucky i was not towing the 26' trailer i usually tow with this vehicle.*ak |
