Montero 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

While driving 65 mph the passenger side rear tire tread separated from the side wall. The cause of the problem has not been determined. When the tire was taken to Firestone they determined that the tire had a flat but the consumer stated it was not a flat tire because it exploded.
