I was driving my Ford F-150 at around 60 miles an hour when the rubber pealed off my General Grabber aw tire. As a result it caused me to swerve and almost resulted in an accident. My rear fender was severely damaged as well as my rear light. I have primewell valera tires on the front and they are cracking. I purchased all tires at Firestone. Of course, when bringing the complaint to Firestone they say I have to call the manufacturer since they do not distribute that name brand.

I repaired a tire that had a nail within an inch or less distance to the sidewall. I let my service/shop manager know about the situation and he told me to do the repair anyway, which I did. The tire repair failed and the tire ended up going flat. All I know is they had me break it down for inspection but the patch did seem to be on the surface properly. There are no posters on how to do the tire repair properly nor are there any methods of double checking the repair after the tire was complete. I do what us asked of me and follow the procedures of the shop but I feel they were insufficient in providing proper procedure in tire repair and verification processes.
