Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I had been traveling on the interstate for approximately 40 miles when i noticed a vibration. i slowed from 65 mph to 60 mph. within the next mile or so, there was a loud bang and i was instantly going sideways. when i got the vehicle under control and stopped, i initally thought i had struck something on the road because all of my tires were still inflated. then someone who stopped to help me pointed out that i had lost all of the tread on the rear driver's tire. i believe it is significant to note that i had just had my tires rotated about a month prior at a tires plus store and they did not inform me of any problems with my tires.*ak( dot number: tire size: p235/75r15 )
