Description of the problem | Have a one month old 2014 ford escape with 1,380 miles on it. While driving west on newly paved i-94 in st. Clair county, my tire pressure warning light came on. Ten minutes later my rear passenger tire blew in four spots around the inside of the tire. The ford dealer told me i ran over something and dismissed it. I've had blowouts and flat tires before but nothing where the inside of the tire fails in four places. Updated 02/11/15 *js |
