| I had a set of firestone fr575,215/70r15,97smts tires on my town car,3 of the 4 were replaced due to tread or cord seperation which caused violent shaking of the car around town. while we were on a out of town trip the one that was on the right front started shaking then all of the tread 100% came off, the car headed for the ditch but i managed to keep it on the road. after i got stopped and put on the doughnut spare i saw the thrown rubber had beat the car up from the middle of the passenger door to the front bumper. i got most of the rubber marks off but it left bent up chrome trim and other damage.i have been driving for 31 years and have never had a passenger tire fly apart like that and now left with undoubtly several hundred or more dollars worth of damage and a scarry memory. thank you so much for this site to file this complaintgene.*ak | |||
