“While driving east on interstate 70, I had a blowout. After looking at the remaining tires, it seemed that they were all pretty worn - if they have the minimum 2/32 tread remaining, they barely do. I feel that a proper safety inspection was completed before enterprise car rental on 37th street north in wichita, kansas sent me away in the vehicle.”
