“I purchased four new bridgestone tires (19570s14 bs wthrfrcb) for my son's car (1996 Buick Skylark - 6 cyl) in april 2005 at sears at oxmoor center in louisville. On tue aug 16, 2005, he was driving down a city street on his way to work when the right rear tire blew out, actually disintegrated. When I saw it, it had holes all around the sidewall, both inside and outside. I have never seen a tire like this. It looked like some one had shot at it with a machine gun. There were pieces of the tire along the street and in the parking lot where he stopped. …”
