| Description of the problem | I own a new nissan frontier sv 2013. With only 25,000 miles on the vehicle i was traveling down the highway then with a very short notice the vehicle started a right hard turn, then the low tire pressure light came on. I pulled within a minute to the shoulder of the road got out of the vehicle smelled burning rubber and flat tire. Mind you these tires have been rotated no visible foreign object outside the tire. But the sidewall is toast. Bf goodrich radial long trail t/a, p265/70r16 had to be replaced with a new tire. The service people could'nt find any object imbedded inside or out of the tire. I saved the damaged/defective tire. |
