I was on the interstate passing an 18 wheeler. My rear passenger side tire blew. The tire caused me to make a sharp right hand turn which threw me under the 18 wheeler. The truck went over the passenger side. I was then thrown into oncoming traffic then into the median. The vehicle is totaled - the air bags did not deploy.
Owned car for 1 day on day 2 driving down road and tire blows out. Garage refused to warranty tire w/o completely inspecting tire.
