On March 7, 2005 the caller was traveling at 75 mph and without warning a tire separated from the rim about 2 inches. He said it happened again on September 10, 2005. He was going about 70 mph. It happened both times to the driver's side. Dealer asked, the first time, if he hit something and they fixed it by giving him a new rim and tire. Dealer has vehicle now for the second time.
