While driving to work my wife made a lane change on the freeway and as she cross the lane divide. The front passengertire failed. The tire pressuredeflated rapidly causing a dangeroussituationat freeway speeds. She was able to pull over safely and discovered the cause of the failurewas do to a slit in the sidewall. The rim was damagedand the tire could not be saved.
I'm having major problems with the valve stems leaking. The vehicle is a 2010 dodge charger with firestone firehawk pursuit tires. The vehicle has been taken to dothan chrysler dodge, dothan al 7 times already for valvestems and it only has 13,400 miles on it! the vehicle is owned by the alabama dept. Of public safety, and rapid deflation of a tire is amajor concern while in the performance of duties as an alabama state trooper. The valve stems are leaking from the sidewalls of the tires. I'm at a loss as how to get this issue resolved. Dodge denies any problem even exists.
