“I have a brand new 2004 Audi a4avantquattro 1.8. On july 1, with 2389 miles on the car, I had a blowout of my right rear tire, which is a goodyear m&s r235/17 low profile high performance tire. I never had a sensation of hitting anything on the road, but had only seconds to get from the fast lane of I-5 in downtown sacramento, ca across 5 lanes of freeway traffic and around a caltrans maintenence crew on the shoulder, to safety. By the time I did, the tire tread had completely separated on both sides of the wheel 360 degrees. …”
