I WAS INFORMED TODAY THAT I HAVE WILDERNESS AT TIRES DOT CODE VD AND W2, BUT THE TREAD ON ALL 4 OF MY TIRES IS BAD. I HAVE 35000 MILES ON THESE TIRES AND WAS TOLD THEY SHOULD BE GOOD FOR 60000 MILES. I AM TO TAKE MY VEHICLE TO A FIRESTONE DEALER TOMORROW FOR THEM TO DETERMINE IF THESE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE. SEEMS TO ME THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THESE TIRES, AND IT DOESN'T MATTER WHICH PLANT THEY WERE MADE IN. *AK( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P235/75R15 )

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
I WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONT END COLLISION WITH MY 2003 FORD EXPLORER. PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE CLEARLY SHOWS THE POINT OF IMPACT WITH A LARGE POLE TO THE LEFT OF CENTER TOWARDS THE DRIVERS SIDE. THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED, THE DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. I SUSTAINED SERIOUS HEAD INJURIES DUE TO A CONCUSSION AS A RESULT OF THE AIR BAG FAILING TO DEPLOY. I DON'T KNOW MY SPEED BECAUSE I HAD FALLEN ASLEEP WHILE DRIVING, BUT IT WAS FAST ENOUGH THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DID GO OFF. I BELIEVE MY RESULTING INJURIES AND LOST OF WORK WOULD HAVE BEEN SIGNIFICANTLY LESS HAD THE DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED AS IT SHOULD HAVE. *JB
