I purchased this vehicle as a new demo with 3210 miles. In feb 1995 with only 8000 miles on this vehicle while traveling at 65+ miles per hour on the fwy the left rear tire exploded ( tread separation) . Almost causing accident and roll over!( no accident or injuries occured). When I pulled to the side of fwy the left rear tire was completely ripped to shreds. I changed the tire installing the spare. I took failed tire to local firestone tire dealer ( kennedy firestone) for warranty adjustment. They said I must have hit something on the fwy. I explained I never hit anything the tire just blew apart at high speed with no waring. They did not adjust tire for warranty what so ever @ 8000mile. I had all four tires replaced with bfg all terrian tires and have never purchased firestone products since this incident.*ak (tiresize: lt245/75r)( dot number: tire size: lt245/75r )
