1 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 01/13/2015

I was driving on the ih-93 nb at 55 mph. Suddenly the car began pulling to the right. I stopped and checked the tires, but did not see any problems. All four tires were inflated to the specs (35 psi). I kept driving, and after 20-25 miles I heard a sound as if something was rubbing in the front passenger fender area. I began slowing down and wanted to stop. At that moment my front right tire separated. It was a primewell valera ht 235/75-15 tire, installed at a firestone shop in plaistow, nh in November, 2014 with a few hundred miles on it.

Vehicle constantly pulls to the left, consumer feels this is a safety issue because sometimes there is traffic present.

Steering wheel jerks and pulls to the right like the vehicle is out of control. Also, windshield wipers operate intermittently.
