ON 03/14/00, WHILE DRIVING NORTHBOUND ON INTERSTATE 75 IN SARASOTA, FL (MILE MARKER 211) AT A SPEED OF 70MPH, MY RIGHT REAR TIRE BLEW CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO PULL SHARPLY TO THE LEFT OFF OF THE MAIN ROAD. THE EXPLORER FLIPPED END OVER END APPROXIMATELY 6 TIMES BEFORE SETTLING UPRIGHT. UPON VIEWING THE DAMAGED VEHICLE, IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT THE INITIAL TIRE FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY A TOTAL SEPARATION OF THE TIRE TREAD FROM THE SIDEWALL OF THE TIRE. A POLICE REPORT IS ON FILE AND ALL NECESSARY INSURANCE INFORMATION, INCLUDING PHOTOGRAPHS ARE AVAILABLE. *AK( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P235/75R15 )
