Ford f-250 pickup equipped with fireston steeltex radial lt265/75r16 lr e tires, towing 30ft travel trailer at 60mph, heard loud noise and thumping sound from right rear passenger side. While decreasing speed to pull over, the driver's side rear tire also failed causing total loss of control resulting in both trailer and truck spinning 180 degrees on freeway which caused the trailer to overturn, both coming to rest in the dirt highway median.

Firestone tire failure, tire flew apart like a recap, and separated from the steel belt causeng twenty eight hundred dollars in damage to my 2002 ford f250 crew cab lariet. The tire had lots of tread left on it, it was about half worn? The tire did not go flat, but the tread seperated and slaped around as I was trying to come to a stop and damage in driver side fender/hood/and runing board. I feel these tire are very dangerous and I am removing them from my truck, two of the back tires on my truck are new and I do not feel safe with them so I will be taking them off.
While driving southbound on I-25 in ft. Collins, my left front tire blew out, at freeway speeds, for no reason. I did not hit anything or go off-roading at all. I own a 2002 ford f250 powerstroke, short bed crew cab 4x4. The tire was a firestone steeltex. The tire was blown into three pieces: left, right and a complete circular section od tread. My brakes were torn apart, as well as my surrounding plastic trim pieces. My daughter and myself were very scared, but happy that nothing worse happened. Firestone tires were responsible for the mishap. They need to be re-called and their tire manufacturing facilities need to be investigated. Thank you.
