1 Tire Blowout problem

Failure Date: 09/25/2016

Firestone tires p225/65r17, 4 tires on a 2008 Chrysler town and country subn gy 2a8hr64x48r648633 gj612383 --I have had to tires blow out in 2 months. The tires were fairly new - threads looked good. One blow out was at a low speed, but it was explosive, and the other was in the diamond lane of the lie at about 55 mph. First time the tire was replaced. The second time that tire and remaining two other firestone tires were replaced. In the vehicle were my husband, (driver) myself (passenger seat) my son 13 y/o and my mother 87 y/o in back seat. Other than a shock at the sound and vibration and then the fear of crossing over to the shoulder from the lie hov lane (across three lanes of traffic). It appears we are all fine. As this was the 2nd time this occurred in 2 months time, a blow out of this tire size and make, and we were extremely lucky not to be injured or injure anyone else as the rubber blew off the tire I - similar to a retreaded truck tire - I am compelled to report it.
