problem #3

RX 330

  • 69,755 miles
1. I was driving on the expressway outside of Chicago with my daughter on her way to college. 2. the rear right tire blew out at 65 miles an hour. Fortunately I was in the right lane and near an exit. I slowed down, exited and pulled into a truck stop. 3. I was able to get someone at the truck stop to help me put on the spare tire after it was determined that the tire was unrepairable. I put the tire a Goodyear / Eagle rs-a / P235/55R18 99V in the spare compartment and was able to drive to Chicago.
