| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Rear tire blew out on highway. found a lump starting in second rear tire. previously i had replaced the two front tires on 3/24/04 due to lumps or bubbles forming. one of these tires started wearing in an odd way and caused very pronounced vibration. these were the oem tires and at that time had 37,486 miles. several days prior to the failure i had noticed vibration and skirmyness while driving. i visually inspected the tires and noticed they seemed out of round and odd shaped. i planned to replace themm in a few days. i did not think at the time a failure was imminent. i was wrong as the failure occured two days before i planned to replace them.*ak |
