Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: These tires were new from a firestone dealer in temple texas , they both blew with in 200 miles of being installed and folded both sides of the bed of my truck . this is not a recent problem with firestone tires . before this i had 4 new firestone 721 radials shuck the tread also . thank god i was in an older full sized truck both times . pleasw look father back than 1991 , how many people died because of firestones lack of quality control as well as the pocket book being more important than thier customers . i was told with these tires i must hace run over something in the road and didn not have road hazzard warranty so i was out the money for 6 tires and the price of repairs to my trucks . i know better , these tires did just what they do now , the tread seperating and blowing out . feel free to call me if you need any further information. *ak( dot number: tire size: p235/75r15 )
