| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I've been a mechanic for over 7 yrs, i noticed that my firestone steeltex a/t tires had strange wear and were noisy. i checked the alignment on my vehicle, which was in manufacturer's specs. we went on a 500ml road trip almost to my destination, when my left front tire blew out on the freeway without warning. when i saw the tire the first thing i noticed were the sideways still in tact, and the tread was gone. before we left i did a trip check which includes checking the pressure and condition of tires.*ak |
