 I have been trying to contact your department since nov. of last year via the us mail system. each time my letter has been returned. first reason was not at dot headquarters, the second reason given was insufficient information..the address i have been given by folks answering your phone number was national highway traffic safety administration 400-7th street washington, dc 20590 after the second return i visited my post office to inquire about the return of undelivered mail. the answer given, to my surprise, was that the us postal department does not have a listing for you at that address. in their eyes, you are not there. got to be a problem somewhere. so i ask again, what is your official mailing address? my event is too long to be fully described in this format as there is as much as 10 incidents relating to single topic. the incident listed below on 8/19/05 was the next to last and caused property damage. the information being given is also referenced to the 8/19/05 incident only. four of the incidents are the failures of the four original tires that came factory equipped with the vehicle. *nm
