Equus

  • 2,500 miles
I was driving on a two lane rod in laurel, Maryland. My car hit a pothole and I got out to look and discover that I had two flat tires on the passenger side. The roadside assistant showed me that the front rim was split and the back tire had a hole on the side. This is the second incident concerning the front wheel of the car. I believe this is a defect.
