Told I will need new tires on my new car!
- Missoula, MT, USA
In the past three months since purchasing a 2013 Ford Fusion with 235/40 19 Continental tires (contiprocontact) I have had 3 sidewall blowouts while traveling at less that 20 mph on paved roadways. This tire choice for this car might not be suitable since it has a relatively small (40) aspect ratio.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Fusion equipped with Michelin 96hm plus tires, size: SP235/50/R17 tires. The contact stated that while traveling 20 mph, the rear passenger's side tire blew. The contact stated there was no damage to the tire at the time of the failure. The contact had not spoken to the manufacturer. The failure mileage of both the tire and the vehicle was 1,800. The VIN and dot number was not available.
