| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Bridgestone duellar at lt285/75r16 s/n# k9801d693az. driving e/b 210 frwy between san dimas and fontana, noticed a very unusual vibration on the left side of the truck. the left mirror was also vibrating. came to the end of the freeway in rialto, as i slowed down to a stopp light the whole truck was squirming from side to side. i found that the tread had bubbled up for approx. a quarter of the tire, i put my spare on and examined the tire. there is steel popping out of the inside part of the tread, it's obvious the tread is seperating and coming apart. what is bridgestone going to do about these tires? i have two friends with the same tires that had the same thing happen to them, both unfortunately suffered blowouts and major body damage.*ak |
