Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The scope of the firestone/bridgestone problem is much larger than the company is admitting. My 16 year old son had a tire disintegrate on 4/21/00. The sparks resulting from this were so bad that passers-by called 911. The officer who came to assist my son said he had never seen a tire fall to pieces like that. It was in the same shape I've been seeing the tires involved in the recall - separating and shredding. The next day we replaced all four tires with another brand due to our fears that this could happen to another tire. I retained one tire to use as a spare. …”
