On 11/15/2016, I purchased 4 new primewell valera touring tires, size 205/55r16 for my daughters 2010 Toyota Corolla s. I purchased the tires from firestone complete auto care, 10925 fm 1960 rd w houston, TX 77070 she immediately begin driving from houston to return to college station, TX where she resides. She had only traveled approximately 50 miles on the new tires when she experienced a rear right blow out which sent her crashing into the highway concrete barrier. She is a bit shaken up with stiffness and pain and her car is damaged in several areas. I am asking my insurance to investigate the full details of the crash. I am also speaking with firestone and hope to reach the manufacturer of the tires as well. A dps officer was onsite to make a report of the accident and the particulars.

3 Tire problem

Failure Date: 11/09/2010

I have a Toyota Corolla 2010,I had it since June 2010, . I went through a major car accident on hw 1 CA @ 8:45 am on Tuesday which was a sunny, clear , not foggy nor rainy day (weather condition was perfect),I was driving on 63 mph (normal speed is 65) on the fast left lane and suddenly I felt that the left front tire is veering the car into a different direction acting as if it below up (but it didn't) and my car is veering to the left , my steering wheel is locked and is not responding at all when trying to change the car directionto the right. There was no way to drive the car in a straight line. The steering wheel failed completely to respond to any attempt to turn it to the right in an attempt to gain control over the car and attempting to drive it in straight line. Brakes as well were not responding. All attempts to stop the car or turn it to the right to avoid bumping the rails and keep it straight in the lane failed. I completely lost control over the car & it started fishtailing in the front. The car didn't stop until it bumped into the guarding rail, at this moment the car just stopped and it took the car more than 20 feed to automatically stop by it self. I failed to stop it. At this moment the car corrected its direction &went in straight line direction scrubbing against the rail completely damaging the entire left side of the car before it stall. Then all the dash board lights and car sounds went on and the car stalled. The car was not in a drivable condition so I had to tow it away. I have a witness who described my accident saying that my car kept swerving to the left & was ambiguously uncontrolled, he was the one that took care of me after the car bumped the rail. This accident is a life threatening accident not only for me but also for others on the hw. I was lucky it happened on my way home after I dropped off my son to school ,the two car seats I had in the car were damaged, the car damage was estimated by $10,000. I suffer from a severe pain.

4 Tire problem

Failure Date: 07/24/2010

Just purchased a 2010 Toyota Corolla s on July 23, 2010. The steering did not seem right. At one week I went back to the dealer and they gave it an alignment, which did not really improve the steering. It is horrible on the highway and my arms hurt from trying to keep it in the lane. Thought it was just me until I started to investigate, and found out all of the other complaints about the same problem. It make you feel like you do not have control of the car. It swerves from side to side. Tired putting more air in the tires, does not help. I have not even made my first payment yet. I have called corporate offices, and am awaiting a response from them. We need to start a class action suit.
