Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On the above date i was returning from jacksonville on i-95 southbound when the tread separated from the carcas on my left rear tire. the tread took out part of the lower left rear quarter panel when it came off. i fishtailed but managed to come to a safe stop, and no further damage ensued. these tires were original equipment on my suv when i bought it. all four tires on the ground were rotated according to manufacturer's specs by a local tire kingdom on 12/03/1999. they felt out-of-round on the trip back. i had the four tires on the ground replaced with goodyear tires on 04/25/2000. i still have the original spare. firestone has not been cooperative in my efforts to be reimbursed. please feel free to contact me by phone or email for further information. *ak (dot number: unknown tiresize: p235/75r15)
