“While driving at 65 MPH rear passenger side tire tread separated without warning. Dealer notified. Tread separated while driving on the highway. Consumer couldn't control the vehicle due to the entire tread coming off the tire. Tire didn't blow.”
NHTSA complaint #10033553, filed 2003-09, 23,000 miles“The end of july, my right front tire developed a bubble and some separation. I had the tire replaced and had the remainder checked and rotated. On august 17 while on my way home from tucson, the right rear tire separated and blew. We went off the road and rolled into a palo verde tree. Luckily, myself and my passenger escaped with minor cuts and bruises. The insurance company totalled my vehicle. They did not cover anywhere near replacement value of the truck nor my welding equipment which was also totalled. I believe that general tire should be made to compensate me for these losses. …”
