NHTSA complaint: FIRESTONE FIRESTONE — TIRES
INITIALLY, I THOUGHT THIS WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. BUT EVER SINCE THE INVESTIGATION INTO BRIDGESTONE/FIRESTONE BEGAN, I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT WHAT *COULD* HAVE HAPPENED TO MY WIFE. SHE WAS DRIVING THE CAR THE DAY THE TIRE SEPARATED, AND FORTUNATELY, IT WAS NOT ON THE FRONT AXLE. MY BELIEF NOW, IN LIGHT OF THIS RECENT DEVELOPMENT, IS THAT THEY HAVE BEEN HIDING INFORMATION FOR QUITE A LONG TIME.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 17570R13 )
