Just pulled out of the gas station. Heard a loud boom. Pulled into nearby parking lot. Discovered passenger rear tire had blown and knocked the rear bottom door panel off. The condition of the tire was horrific! If I had been on the highway traveling at a high rate of speed the results could have been fatal. The original tires when I purchased the vehicle from my local ford dealership. Michelin x green 235/55 r17. The best way I can describe the tire is that it looked dry rotted or as if it had been in a shreaded. Completely dissatisfied with the customer service I received from dealership, michelin, and the initial call to my insurance carrier. Accusing me of hitting a pot hole or other negligence on my part that must have contributed to the tire blowing out. I am concerned about my safety and that of others with the same tires.

My car was running, but placed in park, and I was running to grab something from my home. After I exited the car, I noticed my car was rolling down my slanted driveway, and I ran to stop it. Unfortunately, the car hit me and ran me over resulting in a broken ankle. I believe the car slipped out of gear while it was running, and reversed down the driveway.
