Tire blowout or tread separation by model year
What owners say
Dueler h/t 684 bridgestone tire on right rear of my honda crv 03, tread separated while driving off exit ramp on freeway. There was no warning. Tire pressure had been checked less than two weeks before. There was plenty of tread left on tire. The tire just fell apart while I was driving. Honda dealer referred me to firestone dealer who referred me to a corporate firestone dealer who gave me a claim number to call. I expect if I call they will prorate the tire and sell me another to put on the car. My feeling is that these tires are not safe and I need to replace them before another falls apart and not with bridgestone or firestone tires.
Bridgestone lt size p205/70r15 dot:t0118684pz while driving at 15 MPH, the right front tire blew up. The consumer had to pull over. The dealer told the consumer they had nothing to do with the tire. Please provide further information.
Complete tire failure. While travelling at highway speed noticed tire vibration. Within 10 seconds of hearing the noise the tire completely failed-- the tire was in 3 peices: the two sidewalls were hanging on the rim and the entire tread area was separated from them (the tread area remained in one solid piece). The tires were original equipment on the car, which is only7 months old. The mileage on them was 10000.
I have a new honda crv with 1,600 miles and 3 days ago while driving on the highway my bridgestone tire blew apart, sending the tire across 3 lanes of highway. A deputy sheriff was driving ,and he stated he had never had a blowout like that and felt it was probably a defective tire.
