Tire separated from rim causing sudden air loss. Occurred on parkway exit leading to loss of control of vehicle which said hello to a guard rail. Vehicle damage. Assumed it was my fault until it occurred three other times, four total, on three different vehicles with three different general tire models on three different types of wheels.
1995 Corolla's left front tire blew out causing the consumer to lose control of the vehicle. The vehicle traveled off the left side of the road and into a median before striking a guardrail. The vehicle came to final rest in the median. Further examination revealed that all four tires were bald even past the wear indicators.
Blowout. Complete separation of sidewall at the intersection of sidewall and tread. Result was a two piece tire (sidewall doughnut and tread with other sidewall). (tiresize: 185/65sr14)( dot number: Tire size: 185/65sr14 )
I purchased a tire from a dealer in the countryside... now it is leaking air every five days or so. I have taken it to several tire dealers and they cannot find a puncture leak. They have replaced the air valve, but still the tire leaks air. It has been only one year and less than 10,000 miles on this new tire. Could you suggest how I can proceed to complaint against the manufacturer or the local dealer?( dot number: )
