The tire on the right rear failed on feb. 10, 2008 and was sudden and unexpected. My wife had just stopped for a traffic light and was accelerating to the posted speed limit of 45 MPH. The car was traveling at approximately 35 MPH when the failure occurred. She immediately pulled on to the grass median when she heard clunk, clunk from the rear of the vehicle. …”
