   I WAS TRAVELING ALONG INTERSTATE 10, AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH. THE VISIBILITY WAS CLEAR; THE ROADWAY WAS CLEAR OF ANY OBSTRUCTIONS. THE TREAD ON THE RIGHT REAR TIRE COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE. I DID NOT HIT ANYTHING TO CAUSE THIS TREAD SEPARATION. THE TIRE HAD JUST BEEN INSPECTED/ROTATED BY A FIRESTONE DEALER WITHIN THE PREVIOUS MONTH. WHEN THE TREAD SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE, THE LOOSE TREAD HIT THE REAR QUARTER PANEL ON MY TRUCK CAUSING $2,000 WORTH OF DAMAGES.*AK (DOT NUMBER: H4P9DJD486 TIRESIZE: P195/75R14)
