Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: While driving pickup truck on interstate i experienced a sudden "bouncing" from the rear end that felt like a flat tire. i stopped and all tires were visually examined no flats. i started to drive down the interstate and the "bouncing" started immediately. i stopped and checked all the lug nuts, all were tight. being within 5 miles of home i decided to drive slowly home with 4-way flasher on. within a few yards while traveling at about 35mph the left rear tire experienced tread separation bending the truck's sheet metal around the left rear quarter panel area. the tire was still full of air when i put on the spare. *tr
