Tire Blowout problems of the 1997 GMC Suburban

Pulled out of my driveway got up to speed of roadway that is 50 mph felt a vibration in the front end, slowed down it went away, so I started to speed up again to see if it came back, then boom my front passenger tire literally blew up, the tread separated and the tire almost blew completely off the rim. I temporarily lost control of the vehicle and skidded to halt on the side of the road tearing up a lawn and almost taking out a guard rail. The tire bent my front bumper and ripped my running board partway off. I am very lucky no other traffic was around me. . . I changed the tire to my spare and am now in the process of removing the rest of the cornerstones forme my truck, it's not worth the risk.

I was driving on i87 in n. Y. At 65 mph, when suddenly the car started vibrating to the point that the dashboard was vibrating so much,that I thought it was going to break off. This happened for about 5 miles, at which point I heard a loud noise, like an explosion and stopped the car. I saw the right rear tire had lost all the rubber in the middle section. The tire still had air and it was resting on the steel band. It looks the same way as the other firestone tires. The next day I contacted firestone but they told me that it was not being recalled. When the tire blew it put a dent on my rear passenger door, dented the quarter panel and bent the exhaust pipe . (tiresize: 245/75/16)( dot number: tire size: 245/75/16 ).

Owner says that the tire blew out for no reason while driving on clear road and good weather conditions.
