“I was driving on the northern state parkway going east around 8 am. There was construction alongside the road, as well as many potholes. As I was exiting for the lie, there was a big pothole that I could not avoid. I hit the pothole and my front passenger tire blew out. The tire was completely destroyed.”

NHTSA complaint #10598056, filed 2014-06, 2,160 miles“215/60/r16- replaced 6 tires all under 2500 miles of use. Have all receipts. The tires were always losing air even with being Brandy new, would slide with brand new tread and it did not have to be raining. I spent a lot of money on the tires to only go with a different brand finally after going to have to replace 4 more tires under the 2500 mark, yes I had the warranty for free replacement. But discount tires deemed the Sentury touring tires a road hazard. I also have pictures of how they looked even with air in them. I purchased them from a discount tire store as well. …”
