DRIVING DOWN THE I-10 EAST OF JUNCTION I FELT A SLIGHT VIBRATION AND ATTEMPTED TO PULL OVER AND AS I WAS DOING SO THE PASSENGER REAR TIRE BLEW OUT AND BENT IN THE FENDER BED OF MY TRUCK AND BROKE THE STABILIZER BAR FOR THE BED SKIN. THE TREAD SEPARATED FROM THE SIDE WALL. THERE WAS NO TREAD LEFT ON THE TIRE, ONLY SIDEWALLS. I REMOVED THE TIRE AND PUT ON THE SPARE TO GET HOME. WENT TO DISCOUNT TIRE THE NEXT DAY AND FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SAME TIRE BUT DIFFERENT SIZE. THEY REPLACED THE TIRE WITH A NEW ONE AND FILED A CLAIM WITH KUMHO AND SENT THE DEFECTED TIRE TO THEM.
