DT: THE CONSUMER STATED VEHICLE HAD TWO SEPARATE BLOW OUTS ON NEW ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT TIRES. THE RIGHT REAR TIRE EXPLODED WITHOUT ANY ROAD HAZARD OR PRIOR PROBLEMS. THE SPARE TIRE WAS LOCATED UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE AND THERE WAS SOME DIFFICULTY IN RETRIEVING THE SPARE DUE TO ITS LOCATION, ULTIMATELY RESULTING IN AN INJURY TO THE CONTACT'S ARM BY THE EXHAUST. SHE DROVE THE VEHICLE ON A SPARE TO A TRUCK REPAIR SHOP. THE REPAIR SHOP COULD NOT DETERMINE WHY THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED. ABOUT A WEEK LATER A SECOND BLOWOUT OCCURRED WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH THE LEFT REAR TIRE. SHE NOTED THERE WAS A DUSTY POWDERY RESIDUE IN EACH OF THE TIRES AFTER THE BLOWOUT. THE SPARE WAS AGAIN USED UNTIL SHE WAS ABLE TO PURCHASE ANOTHER TIRE. THE TIRE IS A BRIDGESTONE TRANSMISSION WITH A TIRE LINE SIZE P215/65/R16. *AK UPDATED 1129/05. *JB
