The driver behind me ran over the spare. Fortunately, i had just began to pull off so speed was not a factor and there was no damage to the other vehicle or person. *ln

Right front tire blew out. Dealership claims a nail caused the entire sidewall to blow out. We strongly disagree with them. The tire wasn't leaking air, wasn't underinflated, there were no steering problems, and the tire didn't show any sign of wear. The entire sidewall blew out and cause damage to the tire and rim. For our safety we have removed these firestone tires from our vehicle, and they are here at our home…
