Description of the problem	The vehicle was traveling in the right hand lane, north bound on route 8 in connecticut (in the area of torrington) at approximately 65 mph at 12:30 pm on the january 10, 2010. It was a clear and sunny day with temperatures in the low to mid 30's. There were two passengers in the car (in the front seat) and two snow boards and some snowboarding equipment in the trunk. With no previous indication of a problem, the side wall of the driver's side rear tire failed in two places with a loud bang and an immediate loss of pressure. As soon as it was safe (about a half mile as this section of the highway has no shoulder) the car was stopped and the tire changed. The two holes in the tire are approximately three inches apart. One is 1" by 2". The other is 1/2" x 1 5/8". Both holes go through all layers of the tire. The material from the first hole was ejected from the tire.

The tread was checked by key hyundai of milford on december 30, 2009 and found to be low but safe for a few thousand more miles. The exact tire line is energy mxv4 s8.
