Data refreshed
Tires & wheels reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK GOING SOUTH ON CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY 71. THE LEFT FRONT TIRE BLEW OUT. I CAME WITHIN18 INCHES OF HITTING THE CONCRETE DIVIDER THAT SEPERATES THE NORTH AND SOUTH BOUND LANES. WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE TO CHECK THE TIRE THERE WAS NO TREAD LEFT. I COULD SEE ONLY THE STEEL BELT ALL THE WAY AROUND THE TIRE.( DOT NUMBER: VDHL1PY127 TIRE SIZE: P235/75R15 )
