“Tire tread pealed off my tire causing significant damages to my side step, the metal around my tire wheel got bent up into my door and tore off all my wheel well plastic. Almost caused my front bumper to come off it is now torn on that side and a plastic piece under the bumper is barely hanging in there. I still have the tire as it didn't deflate. My steering wheel clicks and makes my car skip when I make a left hand turn. As if the tires are not turning correctly. The air bag light is on!”
