2005 Chrysler Town And Country tires problems

Dt: the consumer stated vehicle had two separate blow outs on new original equipment tires. The right rear tire exploded without any road hazard or prior problems. The spare tire was located underneath the vehicle and there was some difficulty in retrieving the spare due to its location, ultimately resulting in an injury to the contact's arm by the exhaust. She drove the vehicle on a spare to a truck repair shop. The repair shop could not determine why this problem occurred.

The vehicle involved is a 2005 chrysler town & country LX minivan with stow-n-go seating. After repairing a flat tire, the spare tire hanger jammed, causing the tire to appear in place but actually loose. The hanger is a winch with a wire rope that retracts to hang the tire under the mid-section of the van. The wire rope spooled unevenly, jamming against the housing. No accident occurred, but there is high potential for harm to other drivers if the tire were to fall to the roadway.
