Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Tread separated on my left front firestone firehawk ss10 radial tire while traveling at approximately 60 mph this cause much skidding and loss of control. it is a miracle i managed to get over four lanes to the shoulder without hitting anyone or vice versa. the tread ruined the left side of my car before being unattached and becoming a hazard for the hundreds of people behind me. this is not the first time firestone has indirectly tried to kill me i was a victim of the exact same incident 15 years ago on some firestone 500's in my fathers car. where is safety and responsibility? who is responsible for the damage to my car? *la
