WE HAVE COMPANY VEHICLES THAT HAVE FIRESTONE STEEL TEX RADIAL R45 TIRES ON THEM, WE HAVE HAD 3 OCCURENCES IN WHICH THE TIRES HAVE BLOWN. THEY LOOK LIKE THE TREAD HAS JUST BEEN PEELED OFF. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS INJURED IN THE LATER 2 OF THESE OCCURENCES, BUT ONE BLOW OUT DID INJURE NOT ONLY AN EMPLOYEE BUT ANOTHER PERSON, AND DID TOTAL A VEHICLE. WE DO STILL HAVE THESE ON SOME OTHER OF OUR VEHICLES. I DO KNOW THAT THEY DID HAVE A RECALL ON THESE TYPE OF TIRES IN MAY, BUT THEY SAY THEY HAVE ALL DAMAGED TIRES IN HAND, BUT I AM NOT SO SURE ABOUT THAT, SINCE WE ARE EXPERIENCING THESE PROBLEMS WITH THESE SAME TYPES OF TIRES. I AM INCLUDING THE DATE OF THE LAST OCCURENCE, AND WILL SUPPLY DATES OF THE OTHER 2 WHEN AVAILABLE. *LA
