Description of the problem | I feel very very very angry that this happened. I have2 small children and i 'm glad they were not in the vehicle when this happened. My husband turned the corner onto our street and the tire fell off to the side, now what if had the kids in the car and on the expressway doing 70mph?! The results could be fatal! I can't believe this would happen to a vehicle only 3 years old and with only 40,000 miles. This really disgusts me! Someone could be killed! |
