THIS WAS A TIRE THAT BLEWOUT. THE BLOWOUT APPEARENTLY STARTED FROM THE RIM AND BLEW THROUGH THE SIDEWALL (RIM TO TREAD) ABOUT 7-8 INCHES (SIDEWALL LENGTHWISE). TIRE BLEW WHILE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN AT AN INTERSECTION. I AM NOT SURE OF THE EXACT DATE BUT DO BELIVE IT WAS JUNE/JULY 2000. I CAN GET THIS INFO AS I CALLED AAA TO ASSIST AND THEY SHOULD HAVE RECORDS. THE TIRE HAS THE NAME FR480 ON THE SIDEWALL AND THE DOT CODE IS VDHL. IS THIS IN ANYWAY CONNECTED TO THE RECENT RECALL AND SHOULD THIS MODEL BE INCLUDED?? ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT ME.( DOT NUMBER: VDHL TIRE SIZE: P235/75R15 )

NOTICE ABOUT FIRESTONE TIRE SEPARATION. I HAD ONE SEPARATE, WHEN I HAD IT REPLACED AT THE FIRESTONE DEALER , I ASKED IF HE HAD OTHERS FAIL, HE SAID THERE WERE TWO OTHERS BOTH ON FORD PICKUPS. HE CONTACTED FIRESTONE AND THEY REPLIED THE FAILURES WERE DUE TO HEAT BUILDUP IN FORD'S RIMS THAT CAUSED THE TIRES TO SEPARATE.*AK( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 235/75R15 )
