What owners wrote
Driving on the freeway doing 50MPH is a severe storm when the right rear tire suffered a belt separation causing spin and hitting backwards into a concrete center divide. The collision with the divide caused over $7500 worth of damage. It was reported to the manufacturer - this tire was a super swamper radial tsl 33x14.5 r16 with approximately 24k miles on them.
I was in a car accident. While driving, I don't know what happened but something caused my truck to roll over. Earlier that day I remember that my parking brake would not work. I also had some trouble putting the gear into park. My airbags didn't deploy during this accident, and I was driving with cruise control on if that has any bearing on this. Also, my front tires were always needing air.
