Description of the problem	My 2009 nissian altima drove great unless it was raining. When there was just a slight drizzle my altima would hydroplain uncontrollably. I was driving on interstate 40 in tennessee and it started to rain. My altima started hydroplaining really bad. I was driving at most 40 miles an hour in a 70 mph zone. It sounded like something was really wrong with the rear part of the car. The water from the road completely lifted the rear end of the car off the ground. I believe it was the tires that caused the problem. They were continental conti pro contact tires size 215/60/r16. It was so bad i pulled over at a rest area for the night. The next morning i start my trip again. The car was fine until it started misting rain again. I was going about 40 mph when the car hydroplained and spun out of control. I ended up in the ditch with a totalled car. While i was getting out of the car a woman with the exact car except for the color did the exact same thing, but her car came a stop in the middle of the interstate. I have checkes several nissian lots and not many of there cars come out with these particular tires. I made a complaint to the nissian company, which inspected the car and said that nothing was wrong the car. I am worried that people are at risk of being hurt driving these cars. I have never seen a car drive like this before.
