| Description of the problem | My springs on both rear driver and passenger broke into pieces and popped my tires while i was driving. There was no warning i just had brakes and inspection done a few months ago, and last week while on the highway my tire basically blew apart, when examining we noticed the springs had broken and rubbed against the tires causing them to pop. Im lucky i slowed down in time we could've had a really bad accident and im so upset about it. |
