The right front lemans radial at tire (dot# vdyklaa024)experienced tread separation, causing the consumer to lose control of the vehicle, leave the roadway, and strike several trees, the driver traci l. Evans was pronounced dead at the scene. (attorney for client)
While driving about 60mph tread separated from the rear right tire, causing damage to the rear right side of vehicle. Tire was replaced with different brand.*ak firestone paid for the damage to the vehicle but the customer replaced the remaining tires out of fear of similar tire failure.
While driving on i4 from orlando to tampa at 65 MPH the right rear tire of my tacoma truck had a tread separation and blew apart. I was able to recover and pull over to replace the tire. Neither firestone, nor toyota will take any responsibility for this, claiming the tire is too old and used. It came apart just like the tires on the recall, but is a different size. The damage amount is the amount to replace the tires, since I was able to control the vehicle without causing an accident. I feel the recall should be widened to include many other sizes of these same tires. Having knowledge of the recall is the main thing that allowed me to recognize the problem on the highway and avoid any serious consequences.( dot number: w2hy awa tire size: p215 70r14 )
My tire blew out on the way to work and almost killed me. It is not one of the tires on the recall but I have had nothing but problems with them .they have caused a lot of damage to my vehicle and I know that they are a hazard.I have changed all of the tires to a different brand but wanted to report it anyway.( dot number: )
Failure of tire valve stems causes tire blow out; failure caused by sharp metal edge on cover pierced valve stems; speed 50 MPH; failure occurred 4 times within 4 month period ; according to dealer, there are many other tacoma's with same problem.
