Defective tires, resulting in tires exploding while car was parked, damaging entire front end of vehicle. The tire stated they sold the consumer the wrong tires for the weight of the vehicle and even though it was the tires store's fault, the consumer still had to pay for the upgrade.
The tire on the consumer's 1996 Chevrolet Caprice blewout while parked damaging the entire front end (cooper cornell tire).
Aqua grip radial uniroyal tubeless, e4,0210175,m+s,pz15175r15100s, steel wires sticking out of tire 2 inches and longer when we got the car to a full stop on a mountain side. We moved here 1 yr. Ago, we were told the tire had a "plug" that was all the way inside the tire and had pulled the wires out to the front/ however I can't understand how this would cause the wires to come through the tire all the way around the tire exposing all the wires/ we had one hairy tire, the wires stuck out 2 inches and longer. The steel belting had come apart from the tire on the inside and was flopping around, you could hear it as you rolled the tire around upright on the ground/we purchased two new back tires. ( dot number: tire size: pz15175r15 ).
