WHILE DRIVING MY JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH, THE LOW TIRE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. LESS THAN A MILE LATER, MY LEFT REAR TIRE BLEW AND THE WHEEL CUT INTO THE TIRE EFFECTIVELY DESTROYING THE TIRE. ALL THAT WAS LEFT OF THE TIRE WAS A RUBBER BAND AROUND THE WHEEL AND 25% OF ONE SIDEWALL. THE REMAINING RUBBER PIECES WERE STREWN ACROSS THE INTERSTATE. LUCKILY, I WAS DRIVING DOWN A STRAIGHT STRETCH OF ROAD WITH NO VEHICLE TRAFFIC CLOSE, SO I WAS ABLE TO GET MY VEHICLE SAFELY TO THE ROAD SHOULDER. IF THIS INCIDENT HAD OCCURRED ON A STEEP CURVE, IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, ETC, THE INCIDENT COULD HAVE CREATED A DANGEROUS, EVEN LIFE-THREATENING, SITUATION. WHEN THE TIRE FELL APART, IT DAMAGED MY SIDE PANEL, REAR FENDER, AND BLEW OF MY BUMPER. I PUT ON THE SPARE, TIED ON MY BUMPER, AND DROVE TO THE TIRE STORE WHERE THESE TIRES HAD BEEN PURCHASED A COUPLE OF YEARS PRIOR. THE TIRES HAD 40,000 MILES ON THEM. THEY ARE WARRANTED FOR 65,000 MILES. THE TIRE STORE MAILED THE DAMAGED TIRE TO MICHELIN FOR THEIR ANALYSIS. I WAS SURPRISED WHEN I WAS TOLD BY A REP AT THIS TIRE STORE THAT MICHELIN NO LONGER MADE THIS PARTICULAR TIRE BECAUSE, AS HE UNDERSTOOD IT, THEY HAD KNOWN QUALITY ISSUES WITH IT. MICHELIN EXAMINED AND ASCERTAINED THAT THE TIRE WAS A "RUN FLAT" AND THEREFORE THEY DID NOT COVER EITHER THE REPLACEMENT OF THE TIRE OR THE $1800+ OF DAMAGE. WHILE GLAD TO BE ALIVE AND UNINJURED, I AM SHOCKED AND VERY, VERY DISAPPOINTED IN MICHELIN'S RESPONSE. *TR
