| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While driving at approximately 25 miles per hour in perfect weather, my w/w michelin xz4 215/70/15m/s blew out on my grand marquis from the center/top of the tire(not sidewall). there were no road hazards. the tire has a large gash, and extensively splayed steel belts exposed/torn. luckily i was only a block from home and was able to get home to change it. i've never seen extensive tire damage like this before and am concerned b/c all the tires on the car are the same make and model. is there a defect in the michelin xz4 series?*jb |
