Example complaints
Tires: “I will need to check further to determine the actual date of the accident. The tire in question suffered tread separation while I was stationed in switzerland with the u.s. Foreign service and driving on the autobahn in germany. The tires were original equipment on the car, which was purchased in the u.s. I drove the car from 1993-1994 in guyana, a tropical country in south america. When I heard about the firestone tire recall due to tread separation, especially after being driven in hot climates, I decided to report my 1995 accident. …”
